Home for Good

Home for Good is Avalon’s annual dinner that raises funds for our support services – essential supports that help our residents achieve stability and independence. This year’s event was held on Friday October 12, 2018 at Zingerman’s Cornman Farms and featured an art show with works from Avalon tenants and clients.
