A Community Action Agency Serving Western North Carolina
For more than 60 years, Mountain Projects has been a lifeline in Haywood and Jackson Counties—helping neighbors build brighter futures, stronger families, and healthier communities. We believe in the power of helping people help themselves. Through housing, transportation, senior care, early childhood education, workforce development, and more, our programs meet people where they are and connect them to the tools they need to thrive.
Every story matters. Every person matters. And together, we’re making Western North Carolina a place where everyone has the chance to live with dignity, security, and hope.
