CPCA mobilizes resources from federal, state, and local governments and private foundations to assist low-income families, individuals, and communities. In addition to the programs that are currently administered by CPCA, there are numerous programs founded by CPCA that have become institutionalized and are operated by the counties or as freestanding operations.
