UCP Chicago believes
People
with disabilities, their family members, employers, teachers and
others involved in their lives can, should and will make decisons
that serve their individual aspirations and well-being.
There
are no "one-size-fits-all" answers to the personal challenges
of living with a disability.
Accurate
and up-to-date information and knowledge are part of the foundation
for good decision-making.
Information
and knowledge should be accessible to everyone, not just to "professionals."
UCP
Chicago is not only an organization that provides information,
training and education, but also an organization that learns:
"There are no teachers, only learners" is a cornerstone of UCP
Chicago's philosophy.
Employees
of UCP Chicago daily learn from the people they serve and use
that knowledge to improve UCP programs and services.
