Review for Metrocrest Services, Carrollton, TX, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

In 2013 two of the most respected organizations in the Metrocrest (Carrollton, Coppell, Addison and Farmers Branch TX) merged to provide services to the most marginalized citizens--the homeless, hungry, seniors and unemployed. It has been my pleasure to serve on both the boards which came together--Metrocrest Social Services and Senior Adult Services. It is our goal to help our clientele lead a healthy, more independent lifestyle. We have a caring staff, a cadre of concerned volunteers, a committed board and interested benefactors who continue to improve our services. Our food pantry puts food on the table; our case management staff coordinates health and social service needs; our transportation program gets senior to needed appointments and recreational opportunities; our home repair volunteers keep our seniors' home safe and secure; and our employment assistance programs prepare individuals to gain a meaningful life. We thank God for this agency and all it provides to our citizens.

If I had to make changes to this organization, I would...

Increase the funding opportunities so we could provide more services to more individuals, families and senior citizens.
