Community Options, Inc. is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization dedicated to developing residential and employment supports for people with disabilities. The focus in Austin is assisting people with disabilities move from institutions into homes in the community. As these individuals move from state schools and other institutions, they have one-time needs, such as furniture and housewares, as well as on-going needs, such as clothing and recreational opportunities. New and gently-used merchandise is greatly appreciated.

All donations are tax-deductible as allowed by law. Please call Community Options, at 236-8757 to arrange pickup.
