SEICAA

What SEICAA does

SEICAA (SouthEastern Idaho Community Action Agency, Inc.) is a private 501(c)(3) nonprofit community action agency headquartered at 641 N 8th Ave, Pocatello, Idaho. Founded in 1963 (per company history; the firmographics record lists 1969), the organization delivers a portfolio of social service and housing programs across seven southeastern Idaho counties: Bannock, Bear Lake, Bingham, Caribou, Power, Franklin, and Oneida. Its stated mission is promoting self-sufficiency and greater economic independence for low-income individuals and families, and it employs between 11 and 50 staff supported by a tripartite Board of Directors representing low-income, public, and private sectors.

The core service portfolio comprises nine program lines. Housing programs include Self-Help Housing (HUD SHOP-administered sweat-equity homeownership, with 100+ homes completed as of 2025), Affordable Rental Housing across five properties (Fountain Courts, SEICAA Manor, South Oak, St. Anthony Place, Station 1938), and Weatherization Assistance for energy-efficient upgrades. Income-support programs include Meals on Wheels (operating since 1963, predating federal senior nutrition programs), LIHEAP energy assistance, and Community Services Outreach (Adopt a Family, Project Warmth, Socks for Seniors). Veterans Services operates the Freedom Landing Zone emergency shelter, recognized with a 1992 national Community Service Excellence Award. Select Home Services, a Class A licensed general contractor entity, was added in 2020 to extend housing services into fee-based construction.

Revenue derives from four streams: federal and state government grants (CSBG, LIHEAP, HUD programs), rental housing income from the five property portfolio, individual and business donations (501(c)(3), EIN 82-0290341), and community fundraising events. Services are delivered directly through the seven county offices plus the Chubbuck Weatherization office and South Oak site. The organization does not disclose total revenue but reports a $5,028,070.73+ total economic impact on its homepage, served 28,642 individuals with 150,000+ service units in 2018, and maintains 600+ community partnerships. Leadership transitioned twice in 2020–2022, with current CEO Joe Borich appointed November 28, 2022 following a national search.

Direct peers

• Habitat for Humanity of Idaho: Affordable homeownership nonprofit operating in Idaho with a similar sweat-equity model for first-time homebuyers. SEICAA's Self-Help Housing program via HUD SHOP is conceptually adjacent to Habitat's model, serving overlapping low-income homebuyer populations in Idaho.
• United Way of Southeastern Idaho: Local United Way affiliate operating in the same 7-county southeastern Idaho service area as SEICAA. United Way is a listed SEICAA partner and channel for community fundraising, serving overlapping donor and beneficiary populations in the region.
• Idaho Foodbank: Statewide food assistance nonprofit serving low-income individuals in Idaho, with overlapping food security, community services, and partnership missions in the same geography as SEICAA. Both address basic needs for vulnerable populations and rely on donations, grants, and federal nutrition programs.
• Catholic Charities of Idaho: Faith-based social services nonprofit serving low-income individuals and families in Idaho across housing, food, and case management. Operates in similar service categories (housing, emergency assistance, community support) and competes for the same state and federal funding pools in the same region.
• Boise Rescue Mission: Idaho-based nonprofit providing emergency shelter, transitional housing, and meals for homeless individuals and veterans. Comparable to SEICAA's Freedom Landing Zone veterans shelter and Meals on Wheels program in mission and beneficiary population.

Broad incumbents

• Idaho Housing and Finance Association: State housing finance agency and current SEICAA partner that provides financing for SEICAA's Self-Help Housing program. Operates at scale statewide, competing for and allocating affordable housing capital that determines SEICAA's housing program capacity.
• National Community Action Partnership: National network organization representing the 1,000+ Community Action Agencies (CAAs) across the U.S. SEICAA is a member of this network, which sets CAA standards, advocates for federal funding, and provides training—making it a direct organizational peer and capacity-building partner.
• Idaho Department of Health and Welfare: State agency that administers CSBG, LIHEAP, and other federal programs that flow through SEICAA. The funder/regulator relationship makes it a key counterparty and benchmark for SEICAA's service delivery model across the state.
• The Salvation Army Boise: National nonprofit with an Idaho presence providing emergency housing, food, energy assistance, and veteran services. Operates a broader geographic and program footprint than SEICAA but competes for the same federal antipoverty funding and serves similar low-income populations.

Emerging players

• Energy Outreach Colorado: Nonprofit that administers energy assistance (LIHEAP) and weatherization programs in Colorado. Structurally comparable to SEICAA's LIHEAP and Weatherization Assistance programs in terms of funding model, federal pass-through relationships, and energy poverty mission—useful as a regional efficiency benchmark.
