Spring Growth Through Community Partnerships

Spring is a season of growth, and at J13 Community that growth is happening through partnerships across Austin.

Because of your support, our Community Members are spending more time building friendships, learning new skills, and sharing their strengths with Austin in meaningful ways. Whether joining Abilities in Action Sports Day with Austin Parks and Recreation, pickup kickball games with the newest cadet class of the Austin Police Department, or participating in seed gathering days at the Austin Public Library that helped inspire and establish our J13 Community Garden, our Community Members are forming connections that make Austin feel like home.

Other days, we are giving back alongside our monthly volunteer partner, Healing with Horses Ranch, supporting the meaningful work they do, or engaging with the always inclusive and adventurous climbing community at Crux Climbing Center.

These partnerships help create opportunities for our Community Members to experience Austin not as recipients of care, but as people who add value and bring life to the broader community. We are grateful for the many organizations and partners who continue to welcome us with open arms.

With gratitude,
The J13 Team
