• Rising Adults - Day Program

    Rising Adults - Day Program runs Monday-Friday with separate enrollment for each day. The Day Programs provide a structured, relationship‑centered environment where adults receive 1:4 support while engaging in meaningful daily experiences. Each day of the week has a different theme that guides the activities.

  • Rising Adults - Social Club

    Rising Adults - Social Club is a fun, community‑centered gathering where adults impacted by disability come together to build friendships, explore new experiences, and enjoy meaningful social time. Each meet‑up offers a mix of games, outings, creative activities, and shared conversations designed to spark connection and confidence.

  • Rising Families

    Rising Families groups offer support, friendship and hope. Rising Moms & Dads are groups of peers and friends who understand your parenting challenges. We also host a series of sensory friendly festivities for younger children, including monthly Playdates and movie nights, and annual events such as Chicago Steel and Trunk or Treat.
