Community Resource Center Community Resource Center (CRC®) is a nonprofit helping our neighbors create paths to healthy food, stable homes and safe relationships.

Our vision is communities Communities where everyone has access to the resources they need to live with dignity. After seeing so many in need, local community, faith-based and business leaders collaborated to form an organization to address homelessness and food insecurity among low-income community members. Since 1979, Community Resource Center has grown from providing basic needs for families in crisis, to offering a comprehensive continuum of safety net services - emergency assistance, case management, counseling, shelter and food - to low-income individuals and families who are experiencing homelessness or at imminent risk of homelessness, including domestic violence survivors and their children.
