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.
Same great service! $2 per trip per person
New phone number: 620-326-9996
Hours are 8:30 am - 8:30 pm Monday-Friday, 9-2 pm Saturday

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!
