Futures Unlimited helps people with disabilities learn life skills like cooking, cleaning, budgeting, and how to get a job in the community. We provide the support they need to reach their goals and become more independent than ever.

Case Management
Whether the disability is mild or severe, our professionally trained staff can provide case management focused on determining and working toward the person's preferred lifestyle based on their needs and available resources.

Residential Services
Futures provides the support and training needed to achieve each person's lifestyle goals whether that's a group home, or a home of their own. Assistance with shopping, household tasks, personal hygiene, and money management are just a few of the ways Futures is prepared to help.

Transportation Services
Without access to transportation, people with disabilities find themselves isolated from jobs, friends, public services, and other aspects that make a community "home." Utilizing both specialized and General Public Transportation, Futures helps assure that people can access the services and supports they need and want.

Now introducing WALT (Wellington Area Local Transit) - Sumner County's provider of General Public Transportation.

    Vocational Training and Employment
    Futures provides job training for people with developmental disabilities in a sheltered environment where they can learn valuable work and social skills to prepare them for a job in the community. Our modern production shop uses "real work" in a work environment that concentrates on their "abilities" rather than their "disabilities." For those who are able to work in community jobs, Futures provides support in finding, securing, and maintaining positive employer/employee relationships making it a winning arrangement for all.

    Life Skills
    Sometimes, a day's activities focusing on a "job" might not be what is wanted or needed. For those who may need alternatives to traditional vocational programs because of advanced age, health, physical limitations, or other life circumstances receive support in other life skills which might include anything from gardening, using the library, group social activities, or self care.

    Recreation and Leisure
    The richness of our lives is defined to some degree by our participation in the social and recreational opportunities that are a part of our communities. At Futures, participation in sports, hobbies, music, educational programs, and religion is strongly encouraged and actively pursued!
