West Texas Opportunities Primary
Goals for the Communities We Serve

West Texas Opportunities (WTO) was created for the purpose of administering the Economic Opportunity Act of 1964 and its subsequent amendments. WTO is dedicated to the proposition that the United States can achieve full economic and social potential as a nation only if every individual, regardless of race, creed or sex, has the opportunity to develop to the full extent of his or her capabilities. WTO has as its objectives:

1. To help the communities we serve mobilize resources to combat poverty. This can be achieved most efficiently through involvement of the disadvantaged in planning, policy-making and the operation of the programs that involve their lives.

2. To provide through action and policy the objective to increase the capacity of the individuals, groups and companies affected by poverty to deal effectively with their own problems in order to become self-sustained members of the community and society in which they live.

West Texas Opportunities is an equal opportunity employer.
