Who We Are
The Community Outreach Connection (COC) is a faith-based, nonprofit 501(c)(3) organization founded in 2005 by the late Homer D. Reagan. Our mission is to uplift underserved and disenfranchised families by providing essential resources and support.
Each year, we serve over 6,000 families with food, clothing, and access to vital health and human services. In partnership with the North Texas Food Bank and the Texas Department of Agriculture, we are committed to eliminating hunger in our community.
Through our PEACE Scholarship Program, we have awarded over $6,000 in scholarships to graduating high school seniors, empowering the next generation with opportunities for higher education.
What We Do
