MEET BRITTANY: A Northeast Iowa resident, single mom of three kids, and a CNA. Without Northeast Iowa Community Action Corporation (NEICAC) “I’d be homeless, my utilities would be off, my kids might not be in proper school education they deserve,” Brittany stated.

Brittany first accessed NEICAC in December 2013, since then she has received assistance with her electric and winter heating costs through the Low-Income Home Energy Assistance Program (LIHEAP), assistance with her rent, assistance with her internet bill, assistance with her city garbage bill, and food and household supplies through our Food Pantry. Her two youngest children are enrolled in our Head Start preschool program. She shared, “My local Community Action is amazing and always there for the community when needed. They are always up to date with reliable resources.”

Embrace Iowa

“Embrace Iowa helped our family be getting us a stove. The stove we had was hazardous. When we would cook on it, it would stink the whole house up. Also, it leaked underneath the stove. That stove was so small that my two year old son could see inside the pan without standing on anything. Now, with our new stove we can cook without smelling anything or without cleaning up a leaky mess. Thanks so much for our new stove. We really appreciated it.”
