Our mission is to heal, advocate for, empower, and educate vulnerable and marginalized populations, with priority service to Black men, neurodivergent individuals including autism, and individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD), and their families, particularly those impacted by loss, domestic violence, community violence, and sexual abuse. We provide culturally relevant, trauma-informed, and neurodiversity-affirming mental health awareness, resources, and practices that restore dignity, promote safety, strengthen resilience and independence.

Aunt Agnes House provides person-centered, trauma-informed services designed to meet individuals exactly where they are in their journey. Our experienced consultants partner closely with individuals and families to understand strengths, lived experiences, and unique challenges, developing personalized strategies that promote emotional safety, positive behavior change, and overall well-being. Grounded in evidence-based practices, our approach focuses on building skills, resilience, and empowerment in a way that honors dignity and choice.

Our team is composed of licensed therapists, doctoral- and master’s-level clinicians, licensed behavioral specialists, and qualified direct support professionals. Our clinicians and specialists bring expertise across a wide range of behavioral and mental health needs and are committed to providing personalized, high-quality care. Team members are thoughtfully selected for each service assignment based on their talents, strengths, and clinical expertise to ensure the best possible match with the individual served. We are dedicated to ongoing training and professional development, staying current with evidence-based research, best practices, and innovative techniques to deliver effective, responsive, and person-centered support.
