Dallas 24 Hour Club

What Dallas 24 Hour Club does

Dallas 24 Hour Club is a private nonprofit organization founded in 1969 in Dallas, Texas, that operates a 6-month, three-phase transitional living program for homeless alcoholics and addicts. The program phases residents from a 30-day reset (Phase 1), through up to 5 months of life skills development with mandatory employment (Phase 2), into up to 1 year of affordable sober living at Tillman House (Phase 3). The organization supports up to 119 residents at a time across three owned facilities: the Main Campus at 4636 Ross Avenue, Tillman House, and Trevor's Place (a 6,336 sq ft wrap-around services center opened in 2024). It also hosts 37 weekly on-site 12-step meetings open to the public.

The service offering is bundled rather than modular: in addition to housing and meals, residents receive on-site medical and behavioral health care through Parkland's Homeless Outreach Medical Services (HOMES) Program, no-cost adult education and trade certifications through Dallas College WorkReadyU, life skills classes through the Stuart Bright Life Skills Program (Financial, Employment, Education, Technology, Self-Care, Legal), culinary training at The Hubcap Cafe, women's empowerment sessions, dental services via Dr. Kim Freeman and The Grace Center, and a Recovery Job Training Program. 2025 operational metrics include a 16% recidivism rate (down from 18%), 74% graduation rate at Tillman House, and 92% occupancy.

Revenue is generated entirely through donations: individual giving, corporate giving, commemorative and planned giving, monthly giving, three annual fundraising events (Dallas All Star Chef Classic, Tea for Recovery, Fore The 24), the Friends of The 24 auxiliary (since 2012), and in-kind goods including clothing and Amazon Wish List items. No pricing model exists because services are provided free of charge to beneficiaries. The organization is governed by an independent Board of Directors (chaired by Michael Young), led by CEO Tim Grigsby (2025-present) following Marsha Williamson's transition to CEO Emeritus. It has no parent company, no subsidiaries, and is not backed by venture capital or private equity.
