The White Plains Community Action Program (WPCAP) is dedicated to alleviating poverty and providing essential services to those in need in White Plains, NY. We focus on supporting the 712 units of public housing and federally subsidized residences, primarily serving the growing immigrant population and individuals and families facing economic hardships. Our comprehensive services include an Emergency Food Pantry, the Family Re-Entry Program, and the 'Just Say Yes' Produce Program, which promotes healthy eating. We also offer wellness seminars, after-school partnerships through the City of White Plains Youth Bureau, and seasonal assistance programs for home energy and utilities. Our commitment extends beyond immediate needs with initiatives like the annual Holiday Food Basket and Toy Giveaway, community social events, the Ferris Avenue Beautification Project, and summer sponsorships, all aimed at fostering resilience and support within our community.
