Glossary of Community Action Acronyms
Welcome to the world of Community Action words!
Like many sectors of our society, Community Action has a lingo and acronyms to go with it. In an effort to increase accessibility and comfort for those involved with Community Action the National Association for State Community Services Programs (NASCSP) has compiled a list that briefly defines the acronyms that those in Community Action may regularly encounter. The list is not exhaustive and we will periodically update it.
