In the heart of Dallas–Fort Worth, behind the bustling highways and growing skylines, thousands of families quietly struggle to meet their basic needs. The numbers don’t lie:

​

• 1 in 5 children in North Texas faces food insecurity.

• Over 4,000 youth in DFW experience homelessness each year — many without access to consistent care, shelter, or safe environments.

• Single-parent families and working households often have to choose between hygiene essentials, school supplies, rent, or transportation.

 

But these statistics are more than numbers — they represent lives caught in systems that often overlook them.

That’s where MAZE Resource Center steps in.

We’re not a one-time giveaway table. We’re a community-anchored resource hub committed to providing free, ongoing, and judgment-free support to families and youth — with dignity.

​

We serve:

​

• Families in crisis

• Teens in unstable housing or shelter programs

• School social workers and counselors seeking partner resources

• Local churches, juvenile programs, and nonprofit collaborations

 

Through strategic partnerships, a monthly distribution system, and seasonal community events, we bridge the gap between struggle and stability. At MAZE, we believe that free doesn’t mean low-quality — it means barrier-free. We make access simple, direct, and compassionate — because the families we serve don’t need more hoops… they need real help.

This is why we exist. To meet real needs. To honor real stories. And to clear a path forward.
