Jason and Sidney Fagan, Chereese Johnson and Tim and Stacie Williamson enjoyed a country and western-themed evening supporting Avondale House. The fourth annual Embracing Autism Evening: Hear Our Voices was held at River Oaks Country Club with 300 guests who raised more than $300,000 for Avondale House’s efforts to provide education, training, and resources to people living with autism. Event chairs Sidney and Jason Fagan and Crystal and Jean Neustadt, and honorary chairs Emily and Allen Capps and Ashley and Christian Nelly, welcomed supporters to the evening featuring performances by Nashville songwriters Phillip White, Brice Long, and Grady Block.
