Inyo Mono Advocates for Community Action

IMACA is no longer operating homeless services, family services, and weatherization. Food distributions and LIHEAP are running as normal.

Programs to Support You

Food

We make nutritious foods accessible to our rural communities. Now operating as a drive-thru food pantry, be sure to check our schedule!

Energy Assistance

Nobody should have to choose between keeping their home comfortable and buying necessities. We can help pay your energy bill AND make your home more energy-efficient.

Other Services

We offer emergency services for those affected by natural disasters, and free tax aide through the AARP Foundation.
