CLAP was formed due to the lack of equity, resources, and representation for marginalized Sacramento communities.
We provide community reach-ups, viable resource links, black hygiene living supplies, and community connection for Sacramento.
Although CLAP provides resource links and outreach we do not provide emergency or housing search services. We will try our very best to get you to the support to help!
There are several ways for anyone to connect to CLAP below or under the "Contact us" Tab. Everything CLAP does is created or led by our community so feel free to share your voice on the CLAP Needs Assessment. We look forward to hearing from you!!!

At Community Lead Advocacy Program, we believe everyone in Sactown should have access to resources and basic needs. We are a community led organization providing resources and Reach Ups created by our community members for our Sactown community members. Share your needs below!
Connect with us to volunteer or request support > > > > >
CLAP services are led or created with the input of the community most impacted. In 2024 CLAP will continue to do Reach Ups! These outreaches connect to the community members who struggle with accessing and sustaining basic needs. Fill out the CLAP Share form if you would like to be a part of CLAP Reach Up.

Indigenous, Black, and Disabled People Are Increasingly Over-represented in the population of unhoused in Sacramento. Black families with children are more than half of the families that are unhoused.
Nothing just happens- For generations, Black and Non-White people denied by law and policies: home ownership, intergenerational wealth, economic opportunities that created a dependency on social services safety nets to be housed and to get other basic needs to survive The fragmented family structure and lack of viable economics due to systemic oppression is reflected in the overwhelming amounts of Black families unhoused seen in Sactown, today.
Black hair and skin products are not just beauty cosmetics but necessities for the health of Black skin and texturized hair. In reality, these Black Hygiene items are frequently inaccessible for predominantly Black unsheltered community members who disproportionately represent our unsheltered population in Sacramento. CLAP and Community Partners are collecting these items to support the basic needs of our community members surviving unsheltered. Please connect to the form and join us!!! Anything Helps!!!
Share your input! Whether you are experiencing being unhoused or not, please let us know the importance of Black Hygiene items for you or your loved ones. We look forward to hearing from you!!!
CLAP has always been about uplifting our Sacramento youth and families. If there is a family that needs support please share the community connections below. CLAP also has a Community Corner on this site with other community led supports.
We invite community led programs and services to contact us here at CLAP so we can add them to our resource database.
CLAP would love to hear from anyone who would like to support our efforts that go directly to the Sacramento people.
