The mission of AVANCE Waco is to help young families break the cycle of poverty. AVANCE Waco opened its doors to parents and children in 2002 with generous support from the Bernard and Audre Rapoport Foundation.

Our free-standing facility has parent education/toy instruction and adult education classrooms, four fully-equipped early childhood instruction rooms, offices for staff, meeting rooms, cooking facilities, and a fenced outdoor age appropriate playground. We are located in the heart of South Waco in Waco, Texas.
