How to Use This Directory

Each page in this free help section lists real organisations serving Arlington TX and Tarrant County, with verified phone numbers, addresses, and hours. We update this information regularly — but always call ahead before visiting, as hours and eligibility requirements may change.

All services listed here are genuinely free or available on a sliding scale with no-cost options for qualifying residents. We do not list services that require payment upfront or that use bait-and-switch tactics. If you encounter a service claiming to be free but charging fees, please let us know so we can investigate.

Arlington is part of Tarrant County, so many county-wide resources based in Fort Worth also serve Arlington residents. We include these in our listings where relevant. For statewide resources, the Texas Health and Human Services Commission (hhs.texas.gov) operates a Benefits Finder tool that can identify programmes you may qualify for based on your household income and situation.

This page is provided as a public service. Arlington Business Council does not receive referral fees from any organisation listed here.
