Building On
Progress,
Together

Community Progress Council exists to connect people in York County to greater opportunity. Since 1965, we’ve helped low-income families break the cycle of crisis and move toward long-term economic self-sufficiency.

Discover Our Why

An End to Poverty Starts Here.

Poverty is a community problem that requires a community solution. Together, we can interrupt intergenerational poverty and change countless lives in York County.

Join us on the path to end poverty.
