About AVANCE and our impact
Established in 1973, AVANCE (Uh-vahn-say) is a national, non-profit organization, primarily serving Texas, that meets hard to reach, low-income families where they are. Meaning "advance" or “progress,” AVANCE serves as a trusted guide to assist under-resourced families of young children in overcoming isolation and lack of opportunity. AVANCE's chapter in Austin, Texas was established in 1997.

Transform the lives of many underserved families.

AVANCE’s Two Generation approach consists of Parenting, Child-focused and Parent-focused programs.
Each of these areas is covered by our core Parent-Child Education Program (PCEP) and over 15 other complementary programs.
