We are proud to have a tripartite board consisting of equal parts of local private sector, public sector, and low-income community representatives. This structure brings together community leaders from each of these groups to collaborate on developing responses to local needs and allowing for maximum feasible participation in both the creation and administration of our programs.
Our Board meetings are typically held at 5:30pm on the 4th Monday of alternating months (February, April, June, August, October, and December).
Interested parties may contact Jen Wintermyer for more information.

Join Our Board!
At Tri County Community Action, we are dedicated to eradicating poverty. We fight poverty through advocacy, resource coordination, and direct services. As a private nonprofit corporation, our efforts are guided by a volunteer Board of Directors.
With numerous programs, outreach initiatives, and clients across all three counties, supported by over 40 staff members and multiple locations, we constantly strive to expand our impact. However, we can't do it alone.
To strengthen our organization, we are actively seeking community members who can contribute essential skills. Prospective board and committee members should meet the following criteria:
- Residency or Employment: Live or work in Cumberland, Dauphin, or Perry County.
- Meeting Participation: Attend monthly committee or board meetings.
- Community Awareness: Be informed about the concerns and needs of low-income individuals in your area.
- Fundraising Support: Understand, support, and assist the agency's fundraising efforts.
- Code of Ethics Adherence: Uphold our Board's Code of Ethics, including:
- Representing the interests of all people served, without favoring special interests.
- Not using the agency or board service for personal advantage.
- Keeping confidential information secure.
- Supporting the majority decisions of the Board.
- Approaching all board issues with an open mind and making decisions in the best interest of everyone involved.
- Maintaining the trust of those who elected or appointed you to the Board, as well as those we serve.
- Focusing on our mission, not personal goals.
- Exercising authority as a board member only when acting with the full Board or when designated to do so.
- Acting as a trustee of the agency, ensuring it remains well-maintained, financially secure, and operates in the best interest of those we serve.
