In 1998, As the Multidisciplinary Alternatives for the Child Support Center, MACSC’s joined the forces to help to enforce child support and promote awareness and education for child support victims, which were teen parents and unemployed women receiving government assistance. Serving over 100 clients yearly in child support education, in 2000 the program was extended to offer job skills development and internships to youth parents receiving Temporary Assistance for Needy Families, as well as single female parents reentering the job market. MACSC is a certified education and job training provided through the Texas Work Source.

In 2001, MACSC created a Second Chance Home program, which housed 3 youth parents and their children in shared living arrangement concept. These youth parents were enrolled in the Work-Experience Internship program, attending post-secondary education and moving toward self-sufficiency.

The organization’s mission was extended from supportive services and transitional living, to providing 2 rental housing for low income families. The name was changed to MACSC & Housing, Inc. to reflect the comprehensive profile of services and affordable housing.
