About
Area Congregations Together in Service (ACTS) collaborates with 60+ partner congregations and other agencies in the greater Richmond metropolitan area working to prevent homelessness. During this fiscal year, ACTS received 1409 referrals requesting assistance. Of that number, ACTS was able to financially assist 350 households. These 350 positively impacted households included 858 total people of whom 365 were under the age of 18 and 72 were over 59. An additional 971 other households received some sort of case management including non-cash assistance or referrals to other agencies or organizations that would be more appropriately aligned for their specific needs. ACTS also actively collaborates with other organizations working to provide food and clothing to our clients. This past fiscal year, ACTS provided $117,837 in rental assistance; $29,783 in electrical assistance; $13,868 in water assistance; $4,913 in gas assistance; $13,348 in other utilities assistance, and $3,791 in transportation, meals, and other assistance. Without this assistance our clients would have not been able to maintain their stable housing and would have possibly faced eviction leading to living on the streets or in a shelter.
