Everyone Deserves an Exceptional Day!
Affordable Day Programs and Services for Adults with Special Needs
Exceptional Raffle!

We have set a goal of raising $5000.
A large part of the Exceptional mission is to provide purpose and community to young adults with disabilities, regardless of ability to pay.
-We fundraise to provide scholarships for families in the Enrichment Day and Summer Camp programs.
-We fundraise to provide Better Together (a monthly program for individuals whose disabilities are so complex that they require one-on-one assistance) at no charge to families.
-We fundraise to provide Family Navigators at no cost to families anywhere in Georgia, to help them prepare a sustainable future for their adult children with disabilities.
-And we fundraise to open Exceptional Futures locations in areas of metro-Atlanta that are sadly lacking in programming for adults with disabilities.
None of these programs would be possible without the generosity of our supporters. The Exceptional raffle is an easy way to contribute because for every ticket purchased, you have a chance to win $500 or 4 tickets and a hotel night for the Savannah Banana game on August 22, 2025! The Savannah Banana season is sold out, so this could be your only chance to attend an iconic game.
Exceptional Need
Children with special needs are supported by early intervention and the public school system. But once they turn 22, these young adults age out of their school programs and find themselves without these support systems.
80% of students who have aged out do not find affordable and accessible programs to replace their social and recreational needs.
Exceptional Support
Achieves better health through proper nutrition and fitness activities
Provides community to help prevent depression and isolation
Gives a sense of purpose through volunteering and service
Spreads community awareness and prevents marginalization
Promotes self-advocacy skills for dignity and respect

How EF supports our young adults
Exceptional Testimonials
"EF has been a lifesaver for our family! Our son has always done best with structure, so after he graduated from high school, he was lost. Gone was the familiar, the consistency, the security that he was used to and my husband and I were left scrambling! When we found EF, we knew we had found the right place for him! A place where he is accepted, included, respected and most of all LOVED!"
"EF has assisted our daughter achieve her goals. The staff is professional and accommodates the needs of the participant and parents. It allows participants to improve social skills and communication skills. They make new friends and parents get to network and share information."
“My daughter had given up on everything, thinking no one cared. She has now turned a 180! She absolutely loves the program and it has really helped her. It reminded her that it is permissible to express one’s self, within a safe setting.”
"It gives our special needs adult a place to be treated with respect and do fun activities. She also keeps learning and being engaged with her peers. She loves it and is always telling us about her day and what they will be doing. We love to see how happy EF makes her."
"I love that the young adults have something to look forward to after finishing school. The socialization amongst peers is great. EF means so much to us. I see the growth in my son since attending EF. The staff is amazing. I have recommended EF to other families."
"Exceptional Futures is an answered prayer. It gives my son something to look forward to daily. It provides him exceptional opportunity to interact and socialize with others in a warm, and friendly environment. The Staff treats members like their own families. I am very thankful for their commitment."
