Our residential clients had a blast cheering on our team at the sixth annual Alex's 5K! The race honors the life of former student Alex and raises funds for autism charities.
Local School & University Volunteers
Patient, kind and generous volunteers from the University of Houston and YES Prep East End Campus visited us recently.
Property Development
The basketball and bocce courts, an 1/8 mile walking path and basic fencing have all been installed on the new property.
Houston Artist Mojan
Lauded Houston artist Mojan Vadie will be donating 20% of her painting sales on Dec. 10 at Silver Street Studios to the Friends of Avondale House. You'll be in good company as Melva Meronek, the founding president of "Friends" will be hosting.
Your gift to Avondale House on #GivingTuesday helps children and young adults profoundly impacted by autism reach their fullest potential.
We Gather With Gratitude
Avondale House staff and board
members gathered for a potluck lunch the day before Thanksgiving to show our thankfulness to each other and to Barbara Boyett before her retirement. She will be retiring this Friday, December 2, on her thirtieth anniversary with the agency.

Our Community Shows They Care
Enable Midstream Partners Day of Caring at Bluegate.
As a United Way agency, we are able to partner with local corporate groups during Days of Caring. Enable Midstream Partners and DWD Intl. provided two of our group homes with total curb appeal make-overs! Back at our main facility vehicles were detailed, windows washed and fun crafts were made with our day school students.
