Total Action for Progress, or TAP, helps individuals and families achieve economic and personal independence through education, employment, affordable housing, and safe and healthy environments. For over 50 years we have worked to restore hope, dignity, and opportunity for those who want to claim their potential or need a second chance. With over 25 programs, we make education, jobs, and safe places to live a reality. .......... TAP is an independent community action agency that is not affiliated with a larger franchise—nor are we a government agency. This means money that is raised for TAP stays here in SW VA, invested in the people that we serve. We do not provide "handouts"​. Rather, we work to attack the root causes of poverty by providing opportunity and access to services in these areas: education and career development, business and economic development, and housing and community solutions. ..........
