Company pairing up with autism nonprofit for adults to do work

I learned my company will be pairing up with a nonprofit to do some of our work. When I asked about the company I was told it was for limited work and the nonprofit had a community outreach aspect to it. Looked into the company and it looks like this nonprofit is set up to help autistic adults. I find this controversial because I first was told about this when I asked about moving up/skills I could work on. Instead of being given metrics I was told this so it felt like my company was undermining my work. Also, since it's a nonprofit, I'm worried they are taking advantage of this program – this is work I get paid to do. This was my thought process but how would you take it? what would you do?
