New Avenues relies on you, our supporters, for much of our services and programs.  Contributions of time and funding, large or small, are crucial to what we do.  Volunteer opportunities range from resident advocates, to event volunteers, to office and professional support.  For more on our volunteer support needs, go to the Volunteer link.

Funding is needed to support our recent major initiatives, which include the establishment of our Endowment Fund to enhance the stability of our services into the future, and our plan to attain accreditation by the Commission on Accreditation of Rehabilitation Facilities (CARF).

New Avenues has established a fundraising strategy to improve our group homes and Transitional Respite program.  The purpose of The Home Project is to ensure that each of New Avenues’ nine group homes, and the Transitional Respite Program, are “homes” for those we serve, rather than "institution-like" settings.
