Futures Rehabilitation Center Inc. provides resources for persons in need of vocational and social services to maximize their ability to become participating members of the community.
Futures was founded in 1968 as a response to the need for a program for a small group of individuals with disabilities. Eight students from the Bradford Area School district moved into the extended work program housed in one room at the former Blaisdell Foundation School. The numbers of participants quickly grew and Futures moved into the Orak Grotto building in 1970. Further expansion of programs and participants resulted in Futures acquiring and renovating its own building in 1975. Today, Futures provides programs from its two facilities in Bradford as well as within the community.
Approximately 150 persons a day receive services at Futures, most of whom have developmental disabilities. The Center also offers programs to those with mental health, emotional and physical disabilities. Service area includes all of McKean County. Futures' facilities are accessible to those with physical disabilities. The Center's two buildings are located along Area Transportation Authority (ATA) Bradford City bus routes. ATA also provides daily fixed route transportation to outlying areas throughout McKean County.
