The Community Action Committee (C.A.C.) is made up of residents from communities in the Fairfield and Varina Districts of Eastern Henrico. The Focus of the group is to work together to address primarily youth-related issues. The Community Action Committee meets once a month on a Monday night from 7pm to 8pm.
For the past few years the Committee has been organizing and working to try to get a Community Center built in the East End of the County. This building would provide a variety of on-site activities for youth, young adults and seniors.
You can help out the Community Center process by doing the following:
Attend Frank Thornton and Jim Donati regular meetings and ask about updates on the Community Center.
Email them information (e.g. land owner, amount, etc.) about possible land sites you know of.
Email them any information about funding sources you know of.
