CELEBRATING JUNETEENTH, 2023

6/19/2023

 
Picture
On June 19th, we hope you’ll join UCP Oregon in celebrating and honoring the 158th anniversary of Juneteenth.
 
Although the Emancipation Proclamation took effect on January 1, 1863, news did not reach some enslaved communities until over two years later, on June 19, 1865 (now known as "Juneteenth.")
 
Since then, many people have celebrated on Juneteenth each year. Finally, in 2021, Juneteenth was designated as a federal holiday.
 
On Juneteenth--and every day--we recognize and remember the ongoing struggle for equal rights and freedom. 

KEEP VOTING FOR UCP!

​Eeek! We're falling a bit behind!

Please remember to keep voting for UCP Oregon every day until July 5th, in Advantis Credit Union's completion to win a $10,000 grant.

If we win the grant, we'll be able to give 50 families from UCP's Family Support Department a night of respite at a hotel of their choice.

One night away can make a huge difference in the lives of parents who are raising kids with disabilities, many who are caregivers 24/7.

PS: Gigantic thanks to the awesome local Advantis Credit Union for offering this grant!

UCP'S FIRST EVER "DADS ONLY" CABIN WEEKEND

6/13/2023

 
Picture
We are excited to announce that UCP Oregon’s Family Support Department is hosting its first “For Dads Only” Cabin Weekend!
 
This is a chance for UCP dads to connect with other UCP dads, and have a weekend away to relax and regroup. You’ll be able to have conversations with other dads who “get it.”
 
The dads will be staying two night at the beautiful L.L. Stub Stewart State Park. The park is 34 miles west of Portland, and features hiking trails, two disc golf courses, mountain bike trails, and more.
 
UCP has been gifted two nights of stays in five different cabins. There could be room for up to fifteen UCP dads to stay the night!

PS: A gigantic thank you to the "Explore Cabins and Yurts program" at Oregon State Parks for gifting the cabin stays!

HAPPY PRIDE 2023

 Happy Pride Month!
 
Around the country, people are celebrating the power of authenticity and self-expression.
 
It’s a time to a time to reflect on the achievements of LGBTQIA+ activists, who have fought tirelessly for equality and acceptance. It’s a time to acknowledge that the fight isn’t over. And it’s a time to support and uplift LGBTQIA+ voices, who so often have been marginalized.
 
This month (and always!) UCP Oregon stands united in our commitment to building a more inclusive and accepting world for all. Happy Pride!
