About us
For over six decades, Goodwill Central Texas has relentlessly focused on a single goal: Transforming generations by empowering people through education, career training, and work. We believe that education and work are the only true pathways out of poverty, and strive to provide opportunities for people in our community who face obstacles to sustainable employment: people who have disabilities, people lacking education, people with criminal backgrounds, people facing homelessness, and youth lacking opportunity.

I am delighted to share the exciting news about the launch of Goodwill Central Texas' first ever cookbook! Seeing the collaborative work of different teams within our organization come together to create this project has been truly fulfilling. Our team members sprinkled their magic into every recipe, from mouthwatering appetizers to decadent desserts. Volume one? A masterpiece! And guess what? Volume two is already cooking up some delicious surprises for later this year!

We are a proud sponsor of The Future of Work in Texas by The Texas Standard. This multipart report takes a look at some of Texas’ most prominent industries and provides a glimpse at where they’re headed. Check out their first one focusing on Agriculture ⤵️
In the years to come, there will be more Texans than ever – tens of millions more of us in just the next few decades. But even as our population grows, fewer Texans have jobs growing our food. The Texas Standard explores. “The Future of Work in Texas” is made possible by our sponsors Goodwill Central Texas and ReadySetHire.
Farm worker shortages are already pervasive. What does that mean for the future of agriculture in Texas?
