The agency's programs are made possible by a combination of federal, state, and local grants, fundraising activities, and private gifts and donations. An 18-member Board of Directors, composed of volunteers representing the low-income community, the private sector, and the public sector, governs LHDC. Volunteer policy and advisory councils guide some of the programs LHDC administers. 
LHDC is the designated Community Action Agency for Crawford, Perry, and Spencer Counties. LHDC exists to improve the quality of life in the communities we serve.  In addition to Crawford, Perry, and Spencer Counties, LHDC also offers services in Dubois, Gibson, Harrison, Lawrence, Orange, Pike, Vanderburgh, and Warrick Counties.

​​LHDC offers a variety of programs in the communities we serve including housing, education, health insurance navigation, and more...to help you, your family, your friends, and your neighbors.
LHDC Early Head Start offers both home-based and center-based services to pregnant women and children 0-36 months.
​LHDC Head Start provides center-based services to children 3-5 years of age. Our educational philosophy is based on the theory that children learn best through child-initiated play.
LHDC owns, or provides management services for, housing developments in several area communities. Rental assistance subsidies are available on many apartments. Affordable, quality apartments are available for those looking for low income housing. Some apartments may have immediate availability.
Through a partnership with Covering Kids and Families – Indiana (CKF-IN), LHDC employs Outreach and Enrollment Specialists (health insurance navigators) to help individuals and families access and enroll in affordable health insurance.  Services are provided in Crawford, Perry, and Spencer counties.
EAP provides a one-time annual benefit that can assist you with the high cost of home energy during the winter and can help if you are disconnected or are about to get disconnected. LHDC operates the program in Crawford, Harrison, Perry, and Spencer counties.
