Welcome to United Cerebral Palsy's MySpace page. We appreciate you stopping by.
The mission of United Cerebral Palsy is to advance the independence, productivity and full citizenship of people with disabilities through an affiliate network.
More than 65% of people served by UCP have disabilities other than cerebral palsy. UCP consistently is rated as one of the most financially responsible charities, with 85 cents of every dollar spent directly on local programs and services.
UCP affiliates serve more than 170,000 children and adults with disabilities and their families every day through programs such as therapy, assistive technology training, early intervention programs, individual and family support, social and recreation programs, community living, state and local referrals, employment assistance and advocacy. Each affiliate offers a range of services tailored to its community's needs. UCP is the leading source of information on cerebral palsy and other disabilities and is a pivotal advocate for the rights of persons with disabilities.
For more than 55 years, United Cerebral Palsy (UCP) has been committed to change and progress for persons with disabilities. Founded in 1949, the national organization and its nationwide network of affiliates strive to ensure the inclusion of persons with disabilities in every facet of society—from the Web to the workplace, from the classroom to the community. As one of the largest health charities in America, the mission of United Cerebral Palsy is to advance the independence, productivity and full citizenship of people with disabilities through an affiliate network.

Direct Support Professionals (DSPs), often referred to as caregivers, personal assistants or homecare aides, provide daily supports to millions of Americans with disabilities living and working in the community. Unfortunately, the DSP workforce is in crisis. Low wages coupled with physically and emotionally demanding work has resulted in high turnover and heavy vacancies.
Help Get HR 1279 (Direct Support Professionals Fairness and Security Act of 2007) passed!
