Interested in becoming more involved with the Samaritan Community Center?

At SCC our vision is to encourage all who enter our doors to find hope and experience positive life change. That statement doesn’t just apply to SCC clients. When we wrote “all who enter our doors” we meant it! Whether your interest is to serve as a volunteer, donate to your favorite program, or simply pray for us, there are many ways YOU can help. Below is a list of ways you and your family can get involved at SCC.
