BISMARCK, N.D. (Prairie News Service) – This month, agencies that help low-income residents escape poverty are being honored for their work.
That includes efforts in North Dakota, where leaders say the pandemic has provided opportunities to be more effective in the future. May is Community Action Awareness Month, and the statewide agency for North Dakota has been honored with a proclamation from the governor’s office.
Andrea Olson with the Community Action Partnership of North Dakota says despite a year in which her staff had to shift to working remotely, they still were able to serve clients for issues such as affordable housing.
