Mission & Vision

MISSION: UCP is committed to advancing the independence, productivity and full citizenship of people with cerebral palsy and other disabilities.

VISION: "A community for everyone"

At UCP, we envision a community that values the same important ideas that we do:

  • Full Inclusion
    Individuals, regardless of the severity of their disability, are included in every aspect of life including home, school, workforce, and community.
  • Empowerment
    People with disabilities and families of children with disabilities have a right to decide for themselves, and we support them in identifying their options and utilizing the same means as anyone else in the community to achieve their choices.
  • Family Solidarity
    Families having a member with disabilities are supported so they may stay together and flourish.
  • Diversity
    All persons are valued and respected for their individual differences.
  • Teamwork
    It takes teamwork to produce positive results. The many people who contribute to our mission are appreciated, encouraged, and supported.
