Who We Are
The Henderson County HELP Center (HCHC) was created in 1990 by a group of forward-thinking community members who recognized the need for support and referral services to those in need in Henderson County. Since then, HCHC has grown to meet the needs of Henderson County residents with community support and without duplication of services. HCHC is a 501 (c)(3) non-profit organization which provides essential services to individuals and families in Henderson County. These support services include the Henderson County HELPline, Maggie’s House Child Advocacy Center, Henderson County Teen Abstinence and Healthy Teens Program, HELPing Crime Victims Through Crisis and Beyond program and various other programs. With the help of the HELP Centers caring staff and volunteers, the Center is able to make a difference in the lives of those across the Henderson County community.
