Local United Ways create long-lasting community change by addressing underlying causes of the most significant local issues. Common focus areas include helping children and youth achieve their potential, promoting financial stability and independence, and improving people's health. At the local level, United Way funds programs addressing issues in Education, Income and Health. At the local, state and federal levels, we advocate for policies that will reinforce our work locally.

If we work together, we can promote change in our community and get support for the problems that need it most. Join United Way and speak out to improve education, income and health by reaching out to your local elected officials, state legislators or members of Congress. Working together, we can advance the common good.
