Our Work
The Acres Homes Community Advocacy uses education and communal gatherings to serve our community. We provide opportunities for neighbors to come together to learn about resources that can improve their overall lives and empower them to take charge of their lives.
Disaster Recovery Fund
In light of the devastating May 16th Derecho and July 8th Hurricane Beryl, we need your help to support Northwest Houston! The Acres Homes Community Advocacy Group, League of Women Voters of Houston, and Woori Juntos are distributing $1,000 disaster relief funds to 75 households. Help us raise $75,000 to bring relief to families in need.

Civics 101
Workshop
We host rudimentary civic engagement classes for high schools and community members. The purpose of the class is to provide future leaders and community members with basic information about municipal, county, and state governments, their various roles in daily life, and how to civically engage with each level of government. Community classes take place every Tuesday at 7pm from June until November. For more information, register for our next session here!
Acres Homes Health Action Team
Communities for Better Health and The Acres Homes Community Advocacy Group are teaming up to reactivate the Acres Homes Health Action Team. Join our mission as we work to better understand the health needs of our community, and put our residents at the center of the health care conversation in Acres Homes! More details coming soon!
