Twenty years of opportunity, growth, and belonging

Sabina Hoff’s journey with The Clubhouse began about four years ago when she started volunteering as part of an occupational therapy class assignment. From the moment she walked through the doors, she fell in love with the people, the mission, and the many opportunities to help others grow.

One of Sabina’s favorite things about her role is that no two days are the same. Every day brings a new teaching moment and an opportunity for growth, not only for the Clubbers, but for Sabina as well. She is especially proud of the close relationships she has built with Clubbers, their families, and her fellow team members as they work together toward shared goals.

Known for her patience, positive attitude, and caring nature, Sabina is a team player who is also confident stepping into leadership when needed. She believes the strength of The Clubhouse team comes from everyone bringing different personalities, strengths, and experiences while working toward the same mission. She supports her coworkers while encouraging Clubbers to become more independent and successful.

Outside of The Clubhouse, Sabina enjoys walking her dog, traveling, playing sports, and spending time with family and friends.

Sabina is committed to helping wherever she can and looks forward to continuing to support Clubbers, encourage their growth, and make a positive difference in their lives.

April Rice has a gift for capturing the moments that make The Clubhouse so special. After experiencing a life-changing injury more than 20 years ago, photography became an important part of her journey—and today, she uses that passion to celebrate others.

What April enjoys most is capturing genuine moments in people’s lives and helping them hold onto those memories through photos. She is especially proud of creating company tees and developing her photography skills, while continuing to grow creatively and inspire those around her.

Known for being sweet, loving, creative, and authentic, April brings an open heart to everything she does. She loves helping others, bringing happiness to those around her, and being part of a community where people can feel valued and fulfilled.

For April, it all comes back to one simple idea: having an open heart and an empowering soul gives us something to be grateful for—and that gratitude is meant to be shared with others.

Jonathan Alligood first came to The Clubhouse through the Texas Workforce Commission, which suggested he volunteer to gain work experience and build his job skills. It didn’t take long for Jonathan to realize he had found somewhere he wanted to stay. After exceeding expectations during his work experience, he was offered a position with The Clubhouse before the program had even concluded.

Jonathan especially appreciates the welcoming environment at The Clubhouse. He describes the staff as friendly, patient, and supportive, not only with Clubbers, but with one another as well. A quick learner with strong computer skills, Jonathan strives to treat everyone around him with the utmost respect.

His personal values fit naturally with The Clubhouse mission. Jonathan believes that everyone, regardless of their differences, deserves the opportunity to learn, play, grow, and thrive.

Outside of work, Jonathan has a lifelong fascination with computers. He says he has been using them since he was just two years old!

Jonathan is proud to be part of The Clubhouse and to help Clubbers, their families, and the greater community reach their full potential.

Riley Elaine Wall joined The Clubhouse as a volunteer in May 2026, initially looking to complete volunteer hours for graduation. What began as a requirement quickly became an experience she truly enjoyed, and she has now contributed more than 350 volunteer hours!

For Riley, the best part of being at The Clubhouse is spending time with the Clubbers. She loves hanging out with them, seeing the drawings they create for her, and, most importantly, building the kind of trust that allows them to open up and be themselves. One of her proudest accomplishments has been becoming someone the Clubbers feel comfortable talking to.

Riley brings creativity and compassion to the team. She enjoys art, photography, and crocheting and describes herself as kind and caring. Having special needs herself and being close in age to many of the Clubbers also gives Riley a personal connection and helps her relate to their experiences.

Outside of The Clubhouse, Riley has six siblings, was adopted, loves math, and enjoys plenty of creative hobbies.

Riley hopes to continue being someone Clubbers can trust, talk to, and feel comfortable around, while always learning how to be more patient, understanding, and supportive.
