What We Do

Brookwood provides meaning and purpose in the lives of adults with disabilities. Our Citizens are the heart of Brookwood.

Brookwood’s day program started in 1983, and our first residential Citizens joined in 1985. Today, more than 200 Citizens work in one or more of our enterprises at our main campus in Brookshire or one of our two satellite locations in Richmond, Texas and The Woodlands, Texas.

Over 100 Residential Citizens live on our 485-acre campus and another 130 Day Citizens live at home and commute daily to work on campus. Our Citizens enjoy genuine fellowship, participate in fitness activities in our indoor swimming pool and gymnasium, celebrate the presence of God in our interfaith worship center, and when necessary, receive care in our onsite health clinic.

Brookwood is a short distance from Houston and all the necessary amenities. In addition to its educational and enterprise programs, Brookwood provides a safe and nurturing home environment with proper nutrition, plenty of activity, and productive challenges.

From the beginning, Brookwood was founded on the American free enterprise system and does not take government funds. Our funding comes from tuition, enterprise revenue, and donations. We are committed to serving adults with disabilities from all economic backgrounds and give extensive scholarship assistance.
