Bill > K00103

This resolution commemorates the 60th anniversary of Adirondack Community Action Programs, Inc. (ACAP), a community action agency originally established in 1965 in Essex County, New York. Initially called the Committee for Economic Improvement, Inc., the organization changed its name to ACAP in 1999 and has since focused on helping families become more self-sufficient through various programs. ACAP provides critical services including early childhood education, family support, senior services, and community development initiatives. The resolution highlights the organization's unique approach of measuring success through positive community changes rather than just the number of people served, and recognizes its commitment to understanding individual strengths and fostering strong family relationships. The legislative body acknowledges ACAP's significant contributions to combating poverty and improving community quality of life, praising the dedication of its board, members, and volunteers. The resolution formally pauses to commemorate the organization's 60-year milestone and directs that a copy of the resolution be transmitted to ACAP as a formal recognition of its important work.
