East Dallas Community Center
East Dallas Christian Church donated this State Historic Landmark to the community we serve. This five story building was once used as our Education building. It is now a rent-free resource to other non-profit organizations. Current tenant partners are the Housing Crisis Center, East Dallas Community Organization, Project Access and Women's Southwest Federal Credit Union. East Dallas Christian Church saw this as an opportunity to turn an aging building into a vital collaborative center for non-profit agencies whose program and services benefit our community.
