                        Wednesday, April 3, 2019

  Mr. HURD. Madam Speaker, I rise today in recognition of the 50-year 
anniversary of Endeavors. Since its start in 1969 as Urban Ministries, 
Endeavors has provided comprehensive and effective support services for 
children, families, and our nation's veterans.
  As an organization, Endeavors aims to empower people to build better 
lives for themselves, their families, and their communities through 
services like career training, crisis intervention, homelessness 
prevention, childcare, emergency case management and employment 
assistance for individuals with disabilities. The organization provides 
critical support to over 16,000 people each year and makes a positive 
difference in communities across the country.
  On behalf of the Twenty-third Congressional District of Texas, 
congratulations to Endeavors on their 50th anniversary.
