Assistance Center of Collin County

Assistance Center of Collin County is a nonprofit organization based in Plano, Texas, dedicated to preventing homelessness and poverty within Collin County.

We provide critical support to individuals and families facing financial crisis through a comprehensive network of referrals, education, and short-term assistance. Our team of dedicated staff and volunteers work tirelessly to connect people with the resources they need to maintain stable housing and avoid disconnection of essential utilities.

Established in 1977, the Assistance Center of Collin County has a long history of serving the community, initially as the Information and Referral Center. Today, we continue to expand our reach, providing over $768,444 in assistance to Collin County residents in 2024, and helping 93% of families maintain their housing. We are a vital resource for those navigating challenging circumstances, offering a pathway towards self-sufficiency.

Our commitment extends beyond immediate relief, focusing on long-term stability and empowering individuals to build a brighter future. We gratefully accept donations and volunteer support to continue our mission.
