LTO Ventures is a 501 (c)(3) nonprofit corporation based in Boerne, TX that develops innovative residential, employment, educational, and social engagement options for adults with intellectual or developmental disabilities. We: a) are developing a live, work, play community in Texas; b) provide consulting and project management services to organizations to build their own, and, c) advocate for the rights of adults with IDD to live in the setting and manner of their choosing.

Our intentional community model combines a continuum of “person-centered” residential, employment, educational, and social-recreational options suited to the needs and desires of each individual within a master-planned, community-based, Olmstead-compatible model.

LTO Ventures’ model combines the best design, financial and operational elements of senior living, gated residential and master-planned communities, as well as college campuses, and mixed-use live-work environments. The design model is enhanced by best practices developed from research into supportive and sustainable residential options for adults with IDD. The financial model will eschew government and insurance funds and be self-sustaining through partnerships with for-profit businesses, donations, investments, grants and volunteers.

Our Autism Entrepreneurs Center gives ASD adults the specific guidance, tools and resources they need to create, launch and run their own real for-profit or non-profit companies.  We also hope to create two affiliated opportunities: 1) use the guidance to create partnerships between ASD adults and typical adults to jointly launch and run businesses; and, 2) to encourage these businesses to work collaboratively to share resources and foster other business development through the creation of a business incubator specifically designed to support ASD adults.
