Easter Seals is partnering with Avondale House, a 30 year Houston organization to aid families in getting accurate and earlier diagnosis as well as treatment and community resources.

“We are going to need the Houston community’s total support to achieve our goals both in terms of winning games and raising money to help people impacted by autism,” said Schaub.
