UCP of Greater Sacramento is the leading provider of comprehensive services to children and adults with all developmental disabilities and their families. UCP works with 1,700 people a month in our five county area, empowering children and adults who – without support – would be isolated from community.
UCP of Sacramento and Northern California will hold its 19th annual Humanitarian of the Year Award Dinner 6-9 p.m. on May 10 at the Sheraton Grand Hotel Sacramento. The group, which empowers people with developmental disabilities to live life without limits, will honor Chevo Ramirez, regional vice president of Wells Fargo Foundation for the Northern and Central California Region.
It does not get much more heartbreaking-and inspiring-than Catalina Rodriguez' story. As teen mom, she was devastated when she lost her 18-month-old son, Isaac, who had cerebral palsy. Yet, Catalina has taken her grief and turned it into a mission: to raise funds and awareness for cerebral palsy and to empower children and adults to live life without limits.
A new garden at UCP of Sacramento and Northern California's adult day program will help people with developmental disabilities learn how to grow food and make nutritious meals.
