CAPSBC is a private non-profit public benefit corporation with a 501(c) (3) status. CAPSBC was established in 1965 as a result of the Economic Opportunity Act (EOA) of 1964. The EOA was signed into law by President Lyndon B. Johnson to support his declaration of an unconditional “War on Poverty.” CAPSBC is the designated “Community Action Agency” for San Bernardino County by the State of California and is one of the 1,000 Community Action Agencies nationwide dedicated to assisting low-income individuals and families to become stable and self-reliant.
