NRCA creates a needs assessment every three years documenting local needs in a process that meets the Community Action Organizational Standard requirements and the Head Start requirements of documentation. Qualitative and quantitative data reveals the community’s experience. The Needs and Resource Assessment becomes a tool and a source of information for staff and our community partners. It includes customer, partner, and community member input.

“If we could first know where we are and whither we are tending, we could better judge what to do and how to do it.”   – Abraham Lincoln

This report would not be possible without NRCA’s clients, the Board of Directors, the LICNA Taskforce, and NRCA’s partners, all of whom donated their time and expertise to the project. A special thanks to the LICNA Taskforce for guiding and supporting the LICNA through the chaos and uncertainty of the pandemic, finding ways to be flexible without compromising on quality.
