    About Us

    In 1955, UCP of Sacramento and Northern California started as a group of parents who worked to ensure their children, born with cerebral palsy, had the support and services they needed to live a full life, free from state institutionalization. As a result of their early efforts, and after more than 60 years in Sacramento, UCP programs and services have expanded to serve a wider population including individuals with autism (48% of clients), Down syndrome/epilepsy/other (23%), intellectual disability (20%), and cerebral palsy (9%). UCP provides 14 programs within their four divisions of transportation, adult day programs, family respite care, and recreation/therapy, serving 3,000 individuals.
