We're Here for You.
Southwestern Community Services has been serving the needs of our citizens since 1965 when President Lyndon Johnson waged his “war on Poverty”.
Over the years our programs have evolved and expanded to keep pace with the constantly changing needs of our citizens. We strive to stay in touch with the real needs of the people who find or develop programs that will best serve those needs. We have a diverse funding base ranging from federal to state and local governments, as well as private foundations and corporations.
