Does anyone know a website that can explain the steps to becoming a non profit in Texas?

I've been to the state secretary website %26 seen all the forms, they are kind of overwhelming, ya know. And do you have to be an attorney to submit the forms?
Answer:
You might also want to check with your local law school. I know my law school had a clinic that assisted people in starting non-profits and 501(c)(3) organizations.

Also, be aware that there's a difference between nonprofit status (a designation by the state) and 501(c)(3) tax-exempt status (a designation by the federal government).
A good starting place would be the Texas Secretary of State (SOS) website. Loads of information and links.
