Yuba County Community Services Commission (YCCSC) serves as Yuba County's Community Action Board, advising and counseling the Yuba County Board of Supervisors on programs that affect the County's low income or otherwise disadvantaged citizens. The Commission was created as part of the 1964 Economic Opportunity Act/War on Poverty to reduce poverty in Yuba County by empowering the low-income. YCCSC is a referral source for those in need. YCCSC also funds private non-profit or public organizations in Yuba-Sutter that meet the needs of the low-income in the area and promote self-sufficiency.
