Who are We?
UCP of Eastern Connecticut is a non-profit agency founded in 1947. It was originally founded to provide supports for children with cerebral palsy. The ''Little White Schoolhouse,'' a school for children with any disability was operated by UCP until 1992.
Today we offer adult day programs, residential programs, community outreach, an adaptive toy library and advocacy. Our staff is well trained, professional and committed to our Mission.
Our focus is on individualizing community based services to meet the needs and choices of the individual. Our expertise is in meeting the needs of people who have medical challenges along with physical and developmental disabilities.
