Lana Ross, Executive Director

Welcome to the Iowa Community Action Association (ICAA) website!  I hope you find this site to be helpful to you by providing the information you need. 

There are eighteen agencies serving families living in all ninety-nine counties of Iowa.  The services vary from agency to agency, but staff members from all eighteen agencies are committed to helping families and changing lives.  You can find a map showing each agency’s service area and you will also find contact information for each agency under the member agencies tab. 

You can also learn more about the opportunities we have to offer to families under the “Key Programs” tab.

The eighteen community action agencies in Iowa are part of a larger network of agencies that provide services to low income families all across America.  We are proud of our history (which is described in greater detail under the “About Us” tab) and very excited about our future as we strive to reduce poverty and improve the lives of all people living in America, especially children and families currently living in poverty. 

If you have any questions, feel free to contact me at:
