2014 MCUW Resource Directory

2014 Montgomery County Community Resource Directory

Connecting Montgomery County residents with local resources.

Dear Friends:

Information is power, and good information to connect people who need help with the resources they need is priceless.

The Montgomery County United Way Community Resource Directory details non-profits, government services, civic organizations, and faith-based communities that strive to improve lives of the residents of Montgomery, Liberty and Walker Counties. The data in this book is the information used by 2-1-1 Texas and MCUW’s Information & Referral staff to respond to calls from residents.

In addition to this book, you can get the information you need by:  Calling our trained staff at 888.844.6289 extension 265 during normal business hours  Go to our website at www.mcuw.org and go to the Get Help tab for the pdf  Call 2-1-1 any day, 24 hours a day Whether you are a school counselor, human resource professional, teacher, social worker, non-profit professional, professional counselor, health professional, community navigator or work within local, state or federal government, we want MCUW’s Community Resource Directory to be your go-to book in the office, on the road, or at home. You are the critical link between the people you come in contact with and getting them the information and assistance they need. And please help us get this valuable tool into more hands by letting others know about this directory.

You can also help us continually expand and refine this book. If you learn of a program that is not listed, please let us know so we can include it in our database and future editions.

Thank you for caring enough about the people you see everyday to make a difference in their lives.

We are pleased to be your partner in making our community a place where people and businesses thrive.

You are part of the solution! Thank you for Living United!

Julie P. Martineau President
