ABOUT US
The Volunteer Services Council of the Corpus Christi State Supported Living Center is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization established in 1973. We're based in Corpus Christi, Texas, and operate through a volunteer Board of Directors. All of our board members work and live within our community.
​​
The VSC exists to help our friends who live at CCSSLC - the residents. All of our residents have been diagnosed with mental and physical disabilities. While they live at CCSSLC, the VSC works hard to connect them to the community at large and provide a sense of normalcy for them!
While the state financially supports many parts of the living center, there still remains a funding gap that the VSC fills. Through donations, grants and planned giving, we're able to make progress in bridging that gap.
​
​
In the past, the VSC has been able to make building and environmental improvements, fund recreational activities and educational services, purchase therapeutic medical equipment and services, and generally help meet the needs of the Residents on a financial basis where the State of Texas does not. ​
There are only so many services and funds from the State. So it is up to us - the VSC and You - to make up the difference. Please contact any board member for more information. Thank You!
