ABOUT METROCREST SERVICES 

Metrocrest Services exists to provide hope and build pathways to economic mobility for neighbors in the north Dallas area.  We operate a whole-household, SDOH (Social Determinants of Health)-aligned model organized around five pillars: (1) Income (2) Health and Food (3) Workforce (4) Education/Training (5) Housing.  Our neighbors are at the center of everything we do. 

Neighbors-First is more than a phrase; it is how we work.  We call the people we serve Neighbors because they are members of our community, not cases to be managed.  We approach every interaction with dignity, curiosity, and a whole-household perspective, listening first, following through, and measuring our success by the progress our neighbors make.  Every team member, regardless of role or title, is expected to embody and advance our Neighbor-First Values.
