Austin's House is a group foster home in Douglas County that opened in September 2007. It was built entirely with donations from our giving community. Austin's House provides services and care for up to 10 children from infants to age 18. The children are placed at Austin's House after being removed from their homes due to abuse or neglect. Austin's House provides the basic living necessities including proper nutrition, hygiene, rest, nurturing, recreation, companionship, life skills training and education.

This is a very challenging time for all non-profit organizations. Austin's House truly needs continued generous support from our community to keep the doors open. Information about making donations to Austin's House at (775) 267-6711 or www.austinshouse.org.
