UCPCC provides life-saving programs and essential support to individuals and family caregivers who struggle to find it anywhere else. What we do is unique, and there are many more people who need our facilities and programs than we can accommodate, so this year, we’re raising money to expand — and we need your help to do it.

THIS ISN’T JUST ABOUT A BUILDING IT’S ABOUT A COMMUNITY

    THIS ISN’T JUST ABOUT A BUILDING
    IT’S ABOUT A COMMUNITY

    UCPCC brings students together for activities outside of the home. This integral daily interaction prepares them for life outside our doors, and we seek to engage the larger community by creating a communal space for all to enjoy.

    “It was our daughter Karen who is a special ed teacher who introduced us to UCP while she was trying to find a community of adults with similar challenges as my daughter Lori Ann. Now, 35 plus years later, it’s not just ‘Lori Ann’s go-to’ place,’ its become an extension of the entire West Family!”

    HELPING EVERYONE MEET THEIR FULL POTENTIAL


    Expanding our space means expanding our programs and services to help even more individuals and families, as well as hosting larger community events. In order to grow and reach our potential, we need a campus that has the space to give our students access to the increased programs they deserve.

    “I’ve been with UCP for over 23 years, and I’m still thrilled every time I help a parent or family make a new connection or we develop a new plan or strategy to help their child reach another milestone in their development.”
