The Community Services Administration (CSA) was established by the Headstart, Economic Opportunity, and Community Partnership Act of 1974 (88 Stat. 2291: 42 U.S.C. 2701 note) as the successor to the Office of Economic Opportunity (OEO). The date of succession was January 4, 1975. As an independent agency within the executive branch it administered Federal anti-poverty programs. These programs, designed to reduce poverty in the United States, were available to the poor in both urban and rural areas.
The CSA was abolished on September 30, 1981 through the repeal of the Office of Economic Opportunity Act of 1964 (except titles VII and X of the Act), by Public Law 97-35 of August 13, 1981 (95 Stat. 519; 42 U.S.C. 2941). Its surviving functions were transferred to the Department of Health and Human Services.
