About the company

As a domestic shelter organization, Connections operates as a prime recipient of federal grant awards and has established itself as a significant provider of crisis intervention and victim support services in the state of Texas.
Connections has received federal funding through two primary mechanisms: direct prime grants from the Department of Health and Human Services Administration for Children and Families under the Basic Center Program (CFDA 93.623), and sub-grants administered through various Texas state agencies. The organization's current prime grant award of $250,000 (performance period September 30, 2025 to September 29, 2028) supports the provision of emergency shelter, food, clothing, counseling, and health care referrals to youth under 18 years of age, with capacity to provide up to 21 days of shelter and family reunification services. Connections has maintained continuity in this program, having received over $1.2 million in Basic Center Program funding from 2019 through 2022. Beyond direct federal grants, Connections has served as a sub-grantee under multiple Texas state agencies, including the Governor's Office, the Texas Department of Family and Protective Services, the Texas Health and Human Services Commission, and the Heart of Texas Region Mental Health and Mental Retardation services. Through these sub-grants, Connections has provided specialized services including victim recovery counseling and crisis hotline support for crime victims (2021-2024), emergency shelter and support for youth victims of sex trafficking ages 13-17 (2021), substance abuse prevention programs (2021-2022), and family and youth success programming through the Department of Family and Protective Services (2023).
