A Letter from the TCS team

The CALME Space was born from a simple, powerful idea: no one should face life's challenges alone. We learned this from the generations before us—the mothers who opened their kitchens, the grandmothers who offered comfort without measure. They showed us how to build community from kindness, turning scarcity into abundance with resilience and love.

Today, we carry their spirit forward. The world is changing, and for Texans, new challenges arise daily. Over 30 million people call Texas home, and a significant portion of them are aging or living with a disability. We believe everyone deserves to feel connected, healthy, and empowered. Our mission is to build places where belonging is woven into every moment and connection is as essential as shelter.

We believe in giving everyone their flowers while they can still smell them. This is why our work is represented by three flowers, each one a tribute to a generational value and a core pillar of our programs. These pillars are how we honor the past while building a better future for all Texans. Our team is dedicated to giving dignity to those who are aging, empowering community members with disabilities, and helping all Texans navigate the daily challenges of staying healthy.

We're so glad you're here. Together, we can build communities where everyone feels at home.
