Community Resources
Southwest Michigan Community Action Agency works hard to provide valuable services and programs to our community. However, as a non-profit, we sometimes find ourselves limited in what we can offer. You are important to us. If we cannot assist you, please review this extensive list of resources and services across Berrien, Cass, and Van Buren Counties to see if another agency can meet your needs.
You may also dial 2-1-1 at any time to speak with a knowledgeable Michigan employee for direct agency referrals, up-to-date food pantry information, and more.
Please note that this information is subject to change.
If you are a local organization or community resource servicing our tri-county area but do not see your information located on this guide, please email skeirnan@smcaa.com.
