The mission of Action Inc. is to advance economic equity and foster a thriving community on Cape Ann and beyond. Action Inc. offers programs that bring positive change to people’s lives, including affordable housing, homelessness prevention, fuel assistance and energy efficiency programs, and job training and education.
