Exciting changes are underway at St. Vincent’s Home including BRAAC and Katie’s Place! On January 1st, St. Vincent’s Home officially merged with the Virginia Institute of Autism (VIA), headquartered in Charlottesville, VA, to form one of the largest nonprofit providers of pediatric and adult services for individuals with autism and related disabilities in Virginia. Together, we’ll build on our strengths and aligned missions to better serve families.
VIA is dedicated to helping people overcome the challenges of autism and related disabilities through innovative, evidence-based programs in education with our day schools, outpatient behavioral services, and adult services. Our programs and services are built around the principles of Applied Behavior Analysis. The merged organization serves families in more than 28 localities spanning most of the central and western parts of the Commonwealth of Virginia from its four primary locations in Roanoke, Lynchburg, Lexington, and Charlottesville.
Donations are an integral part of VIA’s mission to help individuals and families overcome the challenges of autism by providing high-quality, evidence-based programs. We welcome you to help fund these vital services by monetary gift or in-kind gifts used in our online auction to benefit VIA programs.
Not only does your gift provide individualized support, it also helps create a community and sense of belonging for those we serve and their families. One mom says, “What a difference the community at VIA has made for us. I can’t overestimate the power of interacting every day with people who get it - when so much of the world doesn’t.”
