Piedmont Area CAA’s
Programs And Purpose
Piedmont Area Communi
ty Action Agency, Inc.
(formerly Upper Ocmulgee
Economic Opportunity Com
mission, Inc.) hasinititated a
five week public information
program geared to acquaint
the general public regarding
the agency’s purpose and
programs, according to Ed
luie Darnelius Walker, Exe
cutive Director.
Piedmont Area Communi
ty Action Agency, whose
central office is located in
Jackson, provides a means
whereby the community can
take a fresh look, in a
coordinated fashion at its
problems. It enables local
citizens, local organizations,
and local government to plan
and act together. From their
joint experiences and diverse
perspective, they try to find
more effective ways to
reduce or eliminate poverty.

flexible approach to fighting
poverty that can respond to
the unique problems of
disadvantaged people. The
Community Service Center is
not in itself an anti-poverty
program, and should not be
regarded as a single solution
to the problem of poverty.
The basic function of the
Community Service Center is
to make people aware of the
social service agencies that
exist to serve them and to
make sure that the com
munity uses every available
resource in its war on
poverty. In doing this, the
Community Service Center
employs the technique of
outreach, referral and
follow-up.
Walker stated that some of
the specific services offered
are: job referrals, clothing
bank, food bank, weatheriza
tion project, garden project,
housing referral, transporta
tion, and senior citizens
programs.
The agency operates Com
munity Service Centers in
Butts (775-2464), Newton
(786-3870). and Pike Counties
(567-8984).
