About Heart of Courage

Heart of Courage is a Dallas-based 501(c)(3) nonprofit that works directly with mothers who have lost custody due to addiction, incarceration, domestic violence, mental-health challenges, or homelessness. The organization delivers advocacy-driven services including court advocacy, family advocacy, individual and group counseling, peer-support groups (HeartTalk!), parenting education, job-readiness support, and targeted material assistance. Heart of Courage maintains an active, donor-facing web presence and collaborates with regional funders and partner organizations to support reunification and stability for families. Recent public filings and grant records show ongoing program activity and multi-source grant support in the past 2–3 years, and the organization reports modest operating revenues used to sustain direct services for clients.
