Limitless Abilities
providing opportunities for everyone
Limitless started out as a church ministry to provide opportunities for those with special needs or disabilities to not only attend church, but also be a fully functioning member as well. As the church ministry has grown, Limitless has provided sensory friendly worship nights, a disability conference, family days, and gatherings for adults with disabilities. One of the most exciting things is that Limitless {Abilities} became a 501(c)3 nonprofit in 2023 and has connected with different churches and community organizations to provide resources for families so that we can work together as one city and one Central Valley to make a difference. In doing so, we have consulted with church leaders to get their ministries going, have started a sports program in western Fresno County for kids with special needs, and most recently have been asked to help businesses develop adapted classes for those with special needs or disabilities.
Our newest endeavor is working to develop classes in the arts (music and art currently - photography coming soon) so our friends can try new things, be creative, and express themselves through the arts. We hope you'll find a class where you can come get creative with us! Our longterm goal is to have our own location where we can offer classes and creative experiences all day long while also providing job opportunities for our friends with disabilities. If you are able to support us in this endeavor, please let us know.
We don’t have special degrees or know all there is to know, but we believe that if we love others and work together, instead of apart, we can make a big difference in some lives.
Sometimes those with disabilities feel limited, but together we are limitless!

“The Limitless Abilities Creative Arts class has had a very positive effect on my daughter’s life as she looks forward to the whole social aspect it provides for her to be around other adults with disabilities. My daughter attends each class session with a great big smile on her face and leaves with a sense of accomplishment, thus leaving a lasting impression on her heart and on mine. The whole Limitless Abilities staff and instructors are very welcoming and friendly, and they always ensure a positive and socially acceptable atmosphere. These classes have helped my daughter and I both to connect on a greater level of interacting that gives her a sense of acceptance and creative independence.”

“The "Limitless" program is a beacon of inclusivity, empowering students with diverse needs by nurturing their unique strengths. As aparent of a child with a disability, I have witnessed its life-changing impact. It has greatly improved my daughter's mental health and provided her with an outlet to form lifelong connections. As a special education teacher, I have observed significant growth in my students' ability to connect with the community, fostering a profound sense of belonging. Socialization is a cornerstone of the "Limitless" program, encouraging students to express themselves and thrive through structured enrichment activities. The mental health benefits are substantial. Creative arts, such as painting, drawing, or clay; as well as rhythm based music, provide therapeutic outlets for my daughter, helping her process emotions, build resilience, reduce anxiety, and enhance her emotional regulation. Similarly, the Limitless Sports programs offer physical activities that alleviate stress and foster a sense of accomplishment.The holistic support from the staff has greatly improved my daughter's well-being, equipping her with tools to navigate challenges and promoting a healthy lifestyle, enhancing her physical health, instilling discipline, perseverance, and a lifelong appreciation for active living.”

“There was such a genuine desire to welcome my daughter, and ensure her needs were met in every art and music class she attended. From providing modified art supplies, to ensuring she sat in a spot that worked well allowing me to provide the physical support she requires. Not only were her physical needs met, every Limitless Abilities team member formed a genuine connection with my daughter, and it was the highlight of her week to see these friends and share a smile. The Limitless classes fostered a true sense of community amongst both the students and their family members/care providers/support individuals. For two hours every Friday morning, my daughter joyfully created art and music alongside her peers, and we both felt we belonged.”
"There is no greater disability in society than the
inability to see a person as more." -Robert M. Hensel
