North American Division of Seventh-day Adventists

Adventist® Community Services (ACS) has been established as a humanitarian relief, and individual and community development ministry to fulfill the mission of the Seventh-day Adventist® Church in the United States and Bermuda which is to serve communities in Christ’s name.

ACS aims to develop continuing leadership education, build collaborative partnerships and expand the scope of community services.

ACS provides services such as Disaster Response, Adventist Crisis Care Network (ACCN), Community Development/Urban Ministry/Inner City Ministries, Elder Care Ministries, Youth Empowered to Serve (Y.E.S.), and Tutoring and Mentoring Programs.

In addition to above programs, ACS has initiated two innovative programs to equip and develop leaders to serve and transform our communities: Nonprofit Leadership Certification Program (NLCP) and Adventist Urban Congress (AUC).
