The Signorelli Company and its homebuilding division First America Homes held a ribbon-cutting ceremony to celebrate the completion of eight duplexes built in Angel Reach Village, according to a Dec. 4 news release.

In a nutshell

Angel Reach Village is part of the nonprofit Angel Reach, with the duplexes allowing the nonprofit to provide shelter and support services to youth ages 16-24 who have aged out of the foster care system or need housing, according to the news release.

The development will feature 16 total duplexes, according to the news release. The duplexes feature two 550-square-foot units with two bedrooms and a bathroom, with each unit designed to house two youths.

First America Homes built eight duplexes; Grace Point Homes constructed five duplexes; and HomeAid, a nonprofit partner of the Greater Houston Builders Association, will build the last three duplexes, according to the press release. The final duplexes are expected to be completed in March.

• “Building better places that enrich lives is what we do, so applying our skills and resources to build safe homes for these young people is an honor,” The Signorelli Company CEO Danny Signorelli said via news release. “We are all blessed in so many ways, that it’s built into the fabric of our company to find ways to serve.”
• “The Angel Reach project has been an incredible opportunity for our team to come together to help change the trajectory of many lives for generations to come, right here in our backyard,” First America Homes President Dave Barnhart said via news release. “It was a privilege to be part of it.”
• “It takes a village to address the growing problem of youth homelessness,” Angel Reach Executive Direct Jean Radach said via news release. “We are so grateful to The Signorelli Company for the many ways they have contributed to making this transformative development possible.”
