Ultimate Sustainability
Ultimate Sustainability franchises operate businesses that create and inspire sustainable futures for young adults with autism and related conditions through side-by-side life skills training, including community-based day support services focused on physical fitness, social skills, pre-vocational experiences, and employment exploration. Franchisees run programs from a 3,000-4,000 square foot mixed-use flex space serving as a base for planning daily goal-oriented community outings. The business model targets the Adult Disabilities Services market, competing with other providers of similar training for adults with autism.
