The Stewpot

Since 1975, The Stewpot, a community ministry of First Presbyterian Church of Dallas, has offered a safe haven for homeless and at-risk individuals of Dallas, providing resources for basic survival needs as well as opportunities to start a new life. Over the years, it has evolved from a soup kitchen into a social services hub that serves the needs of the unhoused, helps unhoused individuals become housed, and provides resources to individuals and families at risk for homelessness. The Stewpot serves approximately 12,000 extremely-low-to-moderate income individuals and families every year through five program areas: Stabilization, Housing, Nutritional Support, Education, and Enrichment.
