As the Community Action Agency for the Tri-County area, we are committed to ensuring that our programs are shaped by the very communities they support. That’s why we are calling on residents of Dorchester and Berkeley Counties to participate in this important election.
We are selecting two Low-Income Representatives to serve on our Board of Directors—one from Berkeley County and one from Dorchester County. These individuals will help guide our work and advocate for the needs of economically underserved residents.
Your vote matters.
We encourage you to come out and vote on May 14, 5 pm – 7 pm at a site near you for the candidate you believe will best represent your community, your experiences, and your voice.
