My Community Catalyst

My Community Catalyst (MC2), formerly the Interagency Support Council of Eastern Williamson County, exists to strengthen and streamline the delivery of social services across our region. As a centralized convener, MC2 unites nonprofits, government agencies, businesses, and volunteers under a shared commitment: ensure every individual and family can find, and fully benefit from, the resources they need.

Through targeted collaboration, we break down silos, close service gaps, and accelerate the pace of innovation. By hosting strategic-planning workshops, maintaining an up-to-date Resource Exchange Hub, and cultivating cross-sector partnerships, MC2 makes it easier for organizations to work together, learn from one another, and scale solutions more efficiently.

The work of My Community Catalyst builds on more than three decades of deep community commitment. What began in 1989 as the Interagency Support Council of Eastern Williamson County, led by Precinct 4 Judge Judy Hobbs, has grown from a monthly meeting focused on at-risk students into a recognized force for coordinated, cross-sector solutions.

By 2006, the organization became a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, guided by community input. Mental health quickly rose to the top of identified needs, leading to the launch of school-based mental health services in 2007. With funding from the St. David’s Foundation, various grants, and support from the community, MC2 was able to partner with Impact Counseling to ensure long-term sustainability.

Over the next 15 years, the program expanded from one district to seven, Since 2021 alone, it is estimated that more than 2,500 students and families in Eastern Williamson County have been directly supported. The program continues this vital work with the same commitment to care, access, and community impact as intended by our founders.
