Tri-County Community Resource Center, with the assistance of community members and partner agencies, connects citizens with locally available resources, services, and supports. TCCRC opened as a result of the dedication and hard work of area residents, advocacy organizations, local businesses, and community leaders who envisioned improving the lives of those living in Dixie, Gilchrist, and Levy co
unties. The Resource Center acts as a one-stop "connecting hub" between those in need and existing community organizations providing assistance in the tri-counties, including faith-based, professional, and volunteer-driven organizations. The board that supports the daily operations of the center helps identify gaps in local services and supports, and advocates to make these resources available locally. The Resource Center provides access to an array of on-site services and/or referral assistance related to food, housing, utilities, healthcare, tobacco use, substance abuse, mental health, adult and childhood education, financial literacy, employability skills, parenting supports, and much more - all under one roof. The center provides a variety of on-site services and supports (refer to monthly calendar for days/times), including a children's clothing closet, infant diaper bank, emergency food closet, public-access computers, notary services, ACCESS benefits applications, rent/utility assistance (based on qualifications and availability), resume help, employability assistance, child safety items, cooking classes, an outdoor community garden...as well as regularly scheduled adult, family, and children's activities, legal workshops, and community events!
