    We have been working with UCP for a little over a year and have been very pleased with the services provided. The girls that work with us have always been caring and loving towards our special needs child and we all love our current provider and feel as if she is part of the family. She is flexible and works with our busy schedule. And our coordinator at UCP has also been incredible to work with. We have been very pleased all the way around.
