About LEGACY COUNSELING CENTER INC (dba Legacy Cares)

Legacy Counseling Center Inc (doing business as Legacy Cares) is a Dallas-based 501(c)(3) nonprofit that has provided HIV-informed mental health, substance use treatment, and specialized housing services since the late 1980s. The organization operates counseling and crisis services, a women-focused Grace Project, a special-care residence (Founders Cottage), and housing navigation and supportive-housing programs (Homebase for Housing and Master Leasing). In recent years Legacy has expanded beyond counseling into housing-focused interventions and continues to serve as a contracted partner for local HIV housing and care programs. The organization maintains audited financials and multi-year Form 990 filings consistent with an annual operating budget in the low millions, reflecting sustained service delivery across North Texas.
