About Healthcare For the Homeless – Houston
Just south of Market Square Park in Houston, Texas, you’ll find Healthcare for the Homeless — Houston. They can connect you to detox services for substance abuse while providing counseling and other treatment and medical services themselves. In short, their mission is to help meet the needs of homeless individuals in the area.
An Environment for Healing
This organization strives to be a singular access point for homeless individuals seeking all kinds of help. Since its founding in 1999, it has become instrumental in supporting Houston’s homeless and supporting their continued growth.
Healing Starts with Help
The great thing about this organization is that they’ll help you find the services you need that they don’t offer themselves. When you come seeking help, they’ll listen to your needs and provide assessments to best determine what providers and organizations in the community will do the most good for you.
This extends beyond substance use disorder treatment and detox (though it includes those, too). They’ll connect you with shelters, food and much needed medical care so you can start the recovery process on your best foot.
Primary and Specialty Care
The direct medical services they do offer are staggering: primary care, dental, vision and mental health are just the tip of the iceberg. Also included are specialty HIV care and women’s health services.
When paired with their care coordination services, you’ll find options to meet all of your needs. A reviewer praised this organization for having excellent medical services and also having a friendly and supportive staff.

Inpatient and residential programs provide round-the-clock medical and emotional support as you live at the treatment facility. This level of care may be recommended if you have severe addictions or mental health conditions since it removes outside distractions and allows you to focus solely on therapy. |
In outpatient therapy, you’ll attend therapy sessions several times each week while living at home. This is ideal if you have a strong support system and a lower risk of relapse. Outpatient treatment offers flexibility to maintain work, school or family obligations. |
