On June 16, the founders of the Best Places to Work in Lincoln list – Woods Aitken LLP, the Lincoln Journal Star, and the Lincoln Human Resource Management Association – announced that Community Action Partnership of Lancaster and Saunders Counties (www.communityactionatwork.org) has been named to the 2022 list in the extra-large company sized category. This is the fifth time Community Action has received this recognition.

The Best Places to Work in Lincoln program, which was started in 2013, recognizes local companies who, through a third party administered employee survey, rank their respective companies as being the best places to work. The areas surveyed are varied parts of employee life, including workplace environment, leadership direction, culture, and management practices. Community Action was acknowledged for creating an enjoyable corporate culture and work environment that fosters personal and professional growth for its employees.

“We are honored to be named one of Lincoln’s Best Places to Work for the fifth time,” said Heather Loughman, CEO of Community Action. “Our staff work tirelessly every day to carry out our mission of empowerment. This recognition belongs to them. The work that they do each day makes Lincoln one of the best places to live.”

Community Action empowers people living in poverty to reach economic stability. Its 17 programs and services address the causes and conditions of poverty in four impact areas: Early Childhood Education, Homelessness Prevention, Financial and Family Well-Being, and Hunger Relief and Healthy Food Access.
