WHO WE ARE AND WHAT WE DO
UCP of Western Massachusetts — an affiliate of the United Cerebral Palsy Association — offers service navigation, direct programming, assistive technology, and advocacy for any individual, regardless of disability, to pursue a fulfilling, self-determined, high-quality community life — a life without limits.
GIVING OPPORTUNITIES
Each year, UCP of Western Massachusetts launches its Life Without Limits Campaign to support programs in need. UCP is devoted to a mission of inclusion for members with developmental disabilities and has created a weekly, fully accessible, overnight summer camping experience at Camp Holy Cross in Goshen, Mass. Members can safely participate in various activities, including communal dining, recreational sport opportunities, nature walks, bunking in cabins, and fishing or kayaking in the beautiful pond.
Due to budget cuts, there will no longer be any ARPA funding to support this vital inclusionary experience. We ask for your support to continue our members’ increase in building their confidence and independence and to participate in this transformational journey.
