Introduction
This guide was created to assist health and human services organizations in the Dallas area find resources to assist patients and clients. As with any such guide, it is important to keep information correct and up-to-date. Please contact us if you are aware of any resources that should be in this guide or know of information in need of revision.
The realities of health and human services in the 21st Century are that it is seldom enough to tell a person seeking help to "go to Parkland" or "call the food stamp office." For many people it is extraordinarily difficult to obtain AND keep services. We urge you to act as an advocate for our less fortunate neighbors.
