Everyone deserves to live life to its fullest.
We can help.
Living with a disability can present many challenges due to social and environmental barriers. The UCCEDD sees a society where all people, including individuals with disabilities and their families, belong and live healthy, safe, self-determined and fulfilling lives within their communities. This means that individuals with disabilities decide how they want to live their lives.
Our Core Functions
How You Can Support Us
Since 1963, University Centers for Excellence in Developmental Disabilities have been creating connections between systems and communities to improve outcomes for people with disabilities. UCEDDs are federally funded by the Administration on Disabilities (AOD), Administration for Community Living (ACL), and U.S. Health and Human Services (HHS). The UCCEDD also depends on other sources of revenue such as federal and state agencies, community foundations, corporations and individuals and would be grateful for any donation you are able to provide. If you are interested in helping to improve the lives of people with disabilities, you can make a contribution by clicking the Support Us button below.
