Community Partners in Action

Community Partners in Action Through our programs, we provide a long-term impact that positively transforms individuals and society at large.

Community Partners in Action's programs include reentry and housing, youth initiatives, a nationally recognized Prison Arts Program, and holistic alternatives to incarceration. One of the oldest organizations of its kind in the country, Community Partners in Action (CPA) was founded nearly 150 years ago as a reentry agency to champion criminal justice reform and advocate for preserving the dignity

of those in and out of prison. Annually serving nearly 7,000 individuals throughout CT, our work is possible due to partnerships with and support from individuals, government, private funders, organizations, and businesses. Our programs are located in Hartford, Waterbury, Manchester, and Hamden CT, and in CT Prisons statewide.

💙Thanks to our supporters, CPA has gotten off to a strong start in our first year participating in Birdies for Charity. One of the greatest benefits of our involvement is the incredible exposure CPA gets highlighting the services we provide. In fact, this past weekend, our Executive Director was interviewed by iHeartRadio and was able to share information on our mission with thousands of listeners across Connecticut! 💙

As we prepare to celebrate a long weekend, we are mindful that freedom is never free. It takes work to secure, strength to protect, and sacrifice to ensure its survival. To those individuals who gave their all for our mutual benefit, we will always remember and honor.
