Sobre nosotros
Fundada en 2021
Una nota de nuestro Director Ejecutivo
“To the individuals, families, partners, and community members visiting our site — welcome.
FUCIS was built on a simple belief: that every adult — regardless of their background, their challenges, or where they are starting from — deserves to be seen, heard, and supported in building the life they want for themselves.
We have spent years walking alongside people who have been underestimated, overlooked, or simply never given the right support at the right time. What we have learned is that meaningful progress is rarely about a single program or a single service. It is about showing up consistently — listening carefully, building trust, and creating the conditions where each person can grow at their own pace, toward their own personal and professional goals.
That is what FUCIS strives to be: not just a provider, but a partner. A steady, committed presence for the individuals and communities we serve.
Whether you are visiting us for the first time or returning as a longtime partner — thank you. We are honored to do this work, and we are grateful for every person who has trusted us to be part of their journey.”
Atentamente,
Karen Williams, Executive Director, Futures Unlimited Community Integration Services
Nos esforzamos por sacar lo mejor de ti.
Liderazgo experimentado
FUCIS está liderado por un equipo experimentado con más de 30 años combinados de experiencia apoyando a adultos con discapacidades intelectuales y del desarrollo y dirigiendo programas comunitarios. Esa profundidad de experiencia, combinada con certificaciones en Planificación Centrada en la Persona (PCP), Servicios en el Hogar y la Comunidad (HCBS), y la Asociación de Educadores de Rehabilitación Comunitaria (ACRE), así como una serie de otras certificaciones, da forma a cómo servimos a cada participante que cruza nuestras puertas. Un compromiso con el aprendizaje, el crecimiento y la excelencia está tejido en nuestros servicios, la capacitación de nuestro personal y nuestras operaciones diarias.
Un Enfoque Centrado en la Persona
Prácticas centradas en la persona
En el centro de todo lo que hacemos está el plan centrado en la persona. Creemos que el participante es el experto en su propia vida, y nuestro papel es escuchar primero, planificar juntos y acompañarlo mientras persigue sus objetivos. Este proceso empodera a cada individuo, fomenta la autorreflexión y la creatividad, abre la puerta a una amplia gama de posibilidades y garantiza que cada paso que damos juntos tenga la mejor oportunidad de conducir a resultados significativos y duraderos.
Why We Believe in the Power of Employment
We believe employment is one of the most direct pathways to dignity, independence, and a stable life. When a participant secures a job — whether it's their first or their next — something shifts. They don't just gain income. They gain identity, routine, and a place in their community. Every person we serve deserves that opportunity, and we show up every day to help make it real.
Why We Invest in Job Readiness
We believe preparation is an act of respect. Before a participant ever walks into an interview, we walk alongside them — building the skills, confidence, and practical tools that give them a real chance. Resume writing, interview preparation, workplace communication, self-advocacy — these aren't boxes to check. They are the foundation of a career, and we take them seriously for every person we serve, regardless of where they are starting from.
Why We Focus on Removing Barriers
We believe that what stands between a person and employment is rarely ability — it's access. Transportation, support systems, economic instability, and limited opportunity have kept too many capable adults on the sidelines. FUCIS exists to close that gap. Through travel training, supportive services, and individualized employment planning, we work to remove the real-world obstacles that have nothing to do with what a person can do and everything to do with what they've been given access to.
Ayudamos a las personas a crecer cada día.
Nuestro personal de apoyo profesional acompaña a cada individuo en cada paso del camino, asesorando, alentando y reforzando las habilidades que están trabajando para desarrollar. Este apoyo constante y práctico continúa durante el tiempo que el participante lo necesite, asegurando que se sienta seguro, capaz y apoyado en cada ambiente de aprendizaje en el que ingrese.
