Since 1927, Southside Community Center has provided community services to the citizens of San Marcos and the surrounding region. Southside is an agency of social concern committed to developing the neighborhoods of San Marcos and Hays County. It operates on the belief that a neighborhood organized around its own interests can do much to enhance the personal dignity of the individual and possibilities for self-determination.
To achieve this purpose, Southside is engaged in providing ministries to the homeless; in supporting women and children in our community through programs of direct service, social action, and various economic development efforts; and in providing safe and affordable housing to low- and moderate-income people.
