WASHINGTON, DC – Congressman Randy Neugebauer (R-TX)
released the following statement today honoring New Horizons in Abilene
as a 2010 Angel in Adoption for their outstanding advocacy of adoption
and family care issues.
“At New Horizons, they work to restore hope to battered spirits by
teaching children to face personal challenges as they strive to live
successfully in a family and community. This organization also places
children in a safe and supportive environment where they can continue to
heal and grow.
“Earlier this year, I had the opportunity to tour the Audrey Grace House,
an extension of New Horizons. The Audrey Grace House is the first phase
of the Community Center of Care and will provide residential treatment,
shelter and support services to Abilene youth and families.
“I am pleased to honor Michael Redden and the great people of New
Horizons as 2010 Angels in Adoption. Growing healthy families is an
important part of building a strong nation.”
NOTE: New Horizons serves the North, West, and Central Texas areas.
