Avenida’s community-based efforts began with the renovation of the historic Guadalupe Theatre, now under the management of the Guadalupe Cultural Arts Center, an anchor of the neighborhood. Avenida then constructed Plaza Guadalupe located in the 1300 block of Guadalupe Street. This location was transformed from a dilapidated area into a beautiful community park where children can play and families and neighbors can gather. The next economic development project for Avenida was the El Parian Business Incubator, a facility built to provide low-cost office space and stimulate commerce and activity in the area. They then tackled the renovation of El Progreso Community Center, which today serves as a meeting and rental space for private parties, quinceañeras and birthday celebrations. Avenida has devoted more than 30 years to beautifying the neighborhood and restoring the community’s vibrancy and vitality. Careful attention has been given to preserving the historic character of the neighborhood while encouraging growth. The ultimate goal of each endeavor is to enhance the Avenida neighborhood’s ability to resume its traditional role in San Antonio.

The American GI Forum National Veterans Outreach Program, Inc. (NVOP) was founded and developed as a separate corporation in 1972 by the American GI Forum of the U.S., the nation’s largest Hispanic veterans’ organization chartered by the U.S. Congress. The objective was to create a new entity that would provide “hands on” services to veterans at the community level. The NVOP is a duly chartered non-profit corporation qualified by the Internal Revenue Service as a charitable organization under section 501(c)3 of the IRS code. The NVOP, headquartered in San Antonio, Texas, is recognized nationally as a premier community-based service provider specializing in services for veterans with special needs. The NVOP is an organization with diversified service components administered by the prime organization (the NVOP) and six sub-corporations that operate services that include employment and training for veterans, affordable housing for the elderly, homeless veterans services, economic development projects that include the Veterans Enterprises of Texas (VETS) box manufacturing company, and the American GI Forum Weatherization company. As a charitable organization the NVOP and all sub-corporations are non-profit entities overseen by a Board of Directors composed of community volunteers and elected officers of the American GI Forum membership organization. In the past 35 years the American GI Forum has established a glittering reputation of administrative professionalism and accountability, and a sterling reputation for innovation in developing services meeting the contemporary needs of the veterans of today. In 35 years the NVOP has never been cited for any disallowed expenses on its annual independent audits, and it has received such accolades as the Regional Award for Cost Effectiveness from the U.S. Department of Labor, selected as a national Best Practice model by the National Coalition for Homeless Veterans, and awarded the U.S. Department of HUD Blue Ribbon award for innovation in economic development when it created the Veterans Enterprises of Texas (VETS) box manufacturing company that created jobs for disabled individuals.

90% of all men and women relapse within the first 90 days of leaving treatment or detox. Without a positive, safe and encouraging environment in which to live these newly recovering individuals hardly stand a chance. And rather than following the program of recovery they inevitably fall back into their old patterns and end up addicted and on the street again. Every day, we help heal the devastating effects of addiction by providing structured residential and assistance programs that reduce & prevent homelessness, unemployment, poverty and crime caused by substance abuse.
