About 29 Acres
29 Acres was founded by a group of families in North Texas who shared a similar need: finding quality support services and safe/independent housing for their young adults with autism and neurodiversity as they age out of the school systems and enter adulthood

Our Mission

To ensure that people living with autism and other neurodevelopmental disabilities have community and a safe place to live where opportunity and happiness are the standard.
Our Vision

29 Acres uses an evidence-based approach in housing design and individualized supports that ensure meaningful growth in employment, independence, and health & wellness while creating culture and a deep sense of belonging.
