FAMILY SUPPORT
​Workshops

Guess what! We've moved our Family Support workshops online!

Most of the trainings will be held via Zoom, which is an easy-to-use online platform. 
 
To fund the training program, we are asking for donations on a sliding scale of $5-10 per training.  If you can donate more, it is always appreciated. If not, we still want you to take the training; no one will be turned away. 
 
Want to be added to a mailing list for trainings? Please send your name and email address to our Family Support Director, Katherine.
 
PS: If you have other topics that are of interest to you or trainings that you know would be beneficial to UCP families, send them to Katherine.
