Welcome to Exceptional Teens & Adults!
Exceptional Teens & Adults is a structured program for adults and teens that have been diagnosed with developmental or intellectual disabilities such as Autism or Down's syndrome. Exceptional Teens & Adults has been providing care and support to adults and the youth since 1999. Exceptional Teens & Adults serves in two ways—a for profit business in a day setting for adults and a nonprofit for teens providing before and after-school programming during the school year including the summers. The for profit entity is supported by State certified providers while the teen center is supported by private pay clients, grants, and donations.
Exceptional Teens & Adults is committed to providing services that are efficient, productive, and responsive to the exceptional needs of each adult or teen, while striving to work with parents, guardians, referral agencies, and supporters. (funding sources) Exceptional Teens & Adults occupies over 9,000 of the 24,000 square feet building that was renovated, and the teen center shares space with the adult day program until the remaining 14,000 is renovated.
