Who We Are

The Dickson County Help Center is a non-profit, public corporation chartered for the purpose of providing aid in the form of food, clothing, prescribed medication, temporary shelter and limited financial assistance to the citizens of Dickson County on an emergency basis.

We were established primarily to help Dickson County families with children at home, disabled adults, and the elderly in need who receive little or no government assistance. These guidelines are extended to others in emergency situations like those displaced due to fires and natural disasters, such as floods and tornadoes.

We are a proud and thankful partner agency of: United Way of Dickson County & Second Harvest Food Bank of Middle Tennessee
