Welcome to the Western Arizona Council of Governments (WACOG). Founded in 1971, WACOG is a governmental non-profit that is dedicated to serving low-income households and vulnerable populations in Arizona’s La Paz, Mohave and Yuma Counties. As the designated Community Action Agency, Head Start provider, and Area Agency on Aging for Western Arizona, WACOG provides a comprehensive array of services that support people and communities in achieving self-sufficiency. WACOG strives to alleviate the symptoms and eradicate the causes of poverty by identifying community needs, mobilizing resources, coordinating services, administering programs, and providing systematic advocacy.
WACOG envisions communities where all residents, including those in poverty and the most vulnerable populations, can flourish and prosper. WACOG believes that all people should have the tools needed for self-sufficiency and that all should be empowered to achieve their full potential and contribute to a vibrant, sustainable and diverse community.
