More About the Community Tax Program
Alternatives' Community Tax Program has been offering free tax preparation services since 2003.  To date we've prepared over 10,000 tax returns for working families and individuals and returne
d over $18 million in refunds to our local community.

Our goal is to help all eligible workers claim the
credits they deserve (without paying high fees) and to help them turn those refunds into financial assets.

You can learn more about getting free tax assistance or volunteering  from our website, or call 216-3459 for more information. 

To help us spread the word, see our outreach page.
