18 State Agencies Continue to Help Iowans in Need
Des Moines Register - By STATE SEN. JACK HATCH • Senate District 33
In 1964, President Lyndon Johnson stated that this country would fight poverty. Forty-six years later, the Iowa Community Action Agencies are continuing to fight day after day for the Iowans who still live in poverty.
This year, 18 community action agencies enrolled more than 101,400 households (254,449 individuals) in the LIHEAP program, a federally and state-funded program to provide low-income Iowans heating assistance.
Year after year, the legislature listens to the burdens of these agencies in trying to help Iowans from cold winter days. Last year we had 95,234 households; 10 years ago we had just over 60,250. The fact that each year individual assistance continues to grow is recognition that Iowans will always need help from the government; and these low-income Iowans are proud but poor.
