The division shall recognize and assist in the designation of certain community action agencies to assist in the delivery of community action programs. These programs shall include, but not be limited to, outreach, low-income energy assistance, and weatherization programs. If a community action agency is in effect and currently serving an area, that community action agency shall become the designated community action agency for that area. If there is not a designated community action agency in the area a city council or county board of supervisors or any combination of one or more councils or boards may establish a community action agency and may apply to the division for recognition. The council or board or the combination may adopt an ordinance or resolution establishing a community action agency if a community action agency has not been designated. It is the purpose of the division of community action agencies to strengthen, supplement, and coordinate efforts to develop the full potential of each citizen by recognizing certain community action agencies and the continuation of certain community-based programs delivered by community action agencies.
