Action in Community Through Service (ACTS) provides relief, fosters hope and promotes self-sufficiency for our Prince William area neighbors in crisis. Your contributions help support the following programs

Serving as a beacon of hope in the Greater Prince William Area for more than 50 years, Action in Community through Service’s (ACTS) mission to provide relief, foster hope, and promote self-sufficiency for our Prince William Area neighbors in crisis was tested like never before over the past two years — and with the support of this amazing community we rose to the challenge.

Your contributions help support the following programs that served as a lifeline for so many during the pandemic. Our level of service in Fiscal Year 2024 continued to provide crucial support to those in need in our community.

Domestic Violence Services — the Prince William Area’s only comprehensive domestic violence prevention and intervention program. We provided shelter; individual and group support for men, women, and children; court advocacy for 3,742 victims of domestic violence.
Sexual Assault Services — the Prince William Area’s only comprehensive sexual assault and abuse prevention and intervention program. We provided individual and group support for men, women, and children, as well as court advocacy and hospital accompaniment for 684 victims of sexual assault and abuse.
Emergency Assistance — utility bill assistance for those who face disconnection. We paid over $207,494 toward overdue balances, keeping utilities on for 615 families.
Emergency Shelter and Permanent Housing — ongoing financial assistance and case management to keep families from returning to homelessness. We sheltered 203 individuals and moved 63 households to permanent housing.
Hunger Prevention Center — nutritious, supplemental food assistance. Through our Dumfries location we provided 8,297 households with 552,791 pounds of food.
Thrift Store, the only one in our area where 100% of the proceeds stay local, directly supporting our programs and services.
