HOUSTON - Mayor Pro Tem Dave Martin is happy to announce that City Council unanimously approved an additional $400,000 grant for The Village Centers during this morning's City Council Meeting. The Village Centers will utilize the funding to provide vocational training and supportive employment services to 120 low-to-moderate income Houston residents with Intellectual and/or Developmental Disabilities.
"As the District E Council Member, I am excited to see The Village Centers receive this funding. Supporting our nonprofit communities, especially those that support creating inclusive opportunities for individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities is crucial to the strength of our community as a whole."
The Village strives to create the support and services needed to affect positive change in the lives of individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities, their families, and our local community, so that these individuals may reach their maximum potential and level of independence.
