To our valued clients, partners, and the Chelsea, Revere, and Winthrop communities:
In light of recent news regarding federal workforce reductions and the closure of regional offices impacting Head Start and the Home Energy Assistance Program (HEAP – Fuel Assistance), we want to provide reassurance and clarity.
It’s business as usual at CAPIC!
Our Head Start classrooms remain open, our fuel and energy assistance programs are fully operational, and our commitment to serving our community remains as strong as ever. While the federal landscape may be shifting, CAPIC continues to deliver the essential services our communities rely on each and every day.
We understand that headlines can cause uncertainty, especially for families depending on programs like Head Start and HEAP- Fuel Assistance. Please rest assured: 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐞 𝐢𝐬 𝐜𝐮𝐫𝐫𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐥𝐲 𝐧𝐨 𝐝𝐢𝐬𝐫𝐮𝐩𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐭𝐨 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐬𝐞𝐫𝐯𝐢𝐜𝐞𝐬 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐫𝐞𝐜𝐞𝐢𝐯𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐫𝐨𝐮𝐠𝐡 CAPIC. Our team is in close communication with our state and national partners, and we are actively monitoring these daily developments to ensure that any changes at the federal level are communicated clearly to our community as we weigh the impact on our programs locally.
Founded in 1967 as part of the War on Poverty, CAPIC has navigated change for almost six decades—and we will continue to do so with transparency, resilience, and a deep commitment to the people we serve.
CAPIC is here for you, and we will continue to advocate, adapt, and deliver on our mission: to identify and address the needs, problems, and concerns of those in poverty and to enable the individually poor to achieve and maintain self-sufficiency.
If you have questions or concerns, please contact our office directly.
The 2023-2024 School Year was defined by persistence, growth and creativity. It was a successful year due to hard work and commitment from program staff and families alike. Read about goals, outcomes, enrollment, and program highlights in this report.
