It is delivered in both rural and urban areas by Local Development Companies (LDCs) and aims to address high and persistent levels of deprivation through targeted and innovative, locally-led approaches. SICAPworkers have extensive local connections and in-depth knowledge of available resources and supports in their area and work to ensure the emerging needs of their locality are responded to.
