Good Samaritan Community Services

This mission of Good Samaritan Community Services is to serve as a catalyst for change, supporting individuals and families by providing excellent community services to overcome the impact of poverty. The Good Samaritan Center was established in 1951 by the Episcopal Diocese of West Texas, under the leadership of Bishop Everett Jones. It began as a downtown mission of St. Mark’s Episcopal Church. Since then, GSCS has grown to become a private, non-profit 501(c)3 organization and United Way agency that provides comprehensive services to more than 5,000 individuals and 1,800 families annually. GSCS actively serves as a place of change, reaching out to support thousands of people working to improve their lives and to overcome the challenges of poverty.
