The Caldwell County Homeless Coalition is celebrating the grand opening of its new physical office from 6-8 p.m. Friday, July 11.

The office is located at 1205 Blackjack Street in Lockhart. Ice Cream and Light Refreshments will be available. Donations will go toward helping people experiencing homelessness.

The Caldwell County Homeless Coalition works with groups, individuals and organizations with the goal of ensuring no people in the county are without a home. Its activities include counting people experiencing homeless in Caldwell County on a quarterly schedule and providing them with assistance.

The new physical, public-facing office will help the CCHC serve more people and provide them with resources, Caldwell County Victim Service Coordinator Cindy Gonzales said.

"We are also partnering with Delivering Hope in Lockhart, who will also office with us and have a thrift store to help with clothing and household items," she added.

The CCHC holds monthly meetings. Visit the website at homelessincaldwell.com, email them at help@homelessincaldwell.com or call 830-351-4421.
