Making futures brighter for individuals with special needs and the people who love them.
Unending Promise (UP) is an all-volunteer nonprofit walking alongside individuals with autism and their families. We connect you with a community that understands, practical support, and the hope that comes from knowing you’re not alone.
MISSION
Our mission is to provide individuals living with autism, primarily in Berks County, Pennsylvania, opportunities to learn meaningful skills in a safe and productive environment. We are guided by a belief that every person with autism has a human potential and interest to be valued, productive, and self-sufficient, given opportunity and skills.
VISION
Our unending promise is to provide a supportive community for individuals with autism and the people who love them.
"Together we can build a world where everyone, including people with autism, can reach their full potential."
— Autism Society of America
“My son isn't 1 in 31. He is ONE. There is no one else like him in the world.”
— Luci Schaeffer, Ed.D., Founder and Director of Unending Promise
