The new Blanco County CRC project includes construction of a 7,500 sq. ft. building that will offer space for 30 plus federal, state, and nonprofit agencies to provide their services to Blanco County residents. The CRC will not only increase access to existing area services, but it will also provide a place for agencies to deliver new services. This includes free medical offices for DSHS and Hill Country MHDD to address mental and behavioral health concerns in Blanco County. The Highland Lakes Family Crisis Center will have a full-time, on-site family crisis counselor available. Other plans for CRC health-related programs include a Prescription Assistance Program, benefits enrollment assistance in government programs like SNAP and Medicaid, and help locating available resources for uninsured individuals. The Johnson City Christian Food Pantry will move into the CRC to continue their work serving the hungry alongside other agencies addressing food needs in the county. CRCTX operates Older Adult Rural Services (OARS), which will help older adults maintain independence and quality of life through solutions like transportation and immediate financial assistance. Additionally, organizations like the Area Agency on Aging and the Alzheimer’s Association will be there to assist with the needs of older adults. Any nonprofit agency interested in acquiring office space at the new CRC may email their inquiry to dklaeger@crctx.org.
