Creating Life Without Limits For People With Disabilities 

For over 65 years, United Cerebral Palsy of Long Island has positively impacted the lives of people with disabilities through the superior quality of programs and services we provide. UCP of Long Island is committed to advancing the independence, productivity and full citizenship of people with disabilities by creating “Life Without Limits.”

We stop at nothing to provide life skills training, education, advocacy, meaningful employment and a place to call home for the people that we serve.

Many of our individuals have been told that they would not succeed due to their disability. Those same individuals have flourished and become advocates, writers, artists and contributing members of their communities.

This Giving Tuesday give a person with a disability a chance to live an abundant Life Without Limits.
