MEET UCP'S NEW FAMILY SUPPORT COORDINATOR

10/14/2024

 
Picture
Dear UCP Community,
 
My name is Grace Tunning. I’d like to introduce myself as UCP Oregon's new Family Support Coordinator.
 
I’ve been with UCP Oregon for three years, working as an Assessment and Quality Coordinator for one of UCP's two brokerages (UCP Mentors).
 
I bring with me:
  • 12+ years of experience working with families.
  • A Master’s degree in Child Development.
  • A commitment to helping children thrive.

I am eager to transition into this new position on Monday, November 4th.
 
As you may know, UCP Oregon's Family Support Department currently supports over 900 families who are raising children with cerebral palsy or related disabilities. UCP's Family Support Department provides assistance from diagnosis to adulthood, including:
  • Information and referrals.
  • Support groups.
  • Connection opportunities.
  • Workshops.
  • Fun events.
  • And a bi-annual conference.
 
As UCP's Family Support Coordinator, I am looking for ways to collaborate and more effectively meet the needs of children and families. I am eager to work together to enhance access to the resources and services in our community.
 
Whether through joint events, shared resources, referral networks, promoting opportunities, or collaborative programs, our partnerships can help us all achieve our objectives and ultimately improve the lives of those we serve.
 
If you have question or concerns, or would like more information about UCP Oregon's Family Support Department, I’m here to help. Please reach out to me directly via email  or at 971-888-2927.
 
I look forward to connecting with each of you. Thank you for the
work that you do!

 
Warm regards,

Grace Tunning
Family Support Coordinator, UCP Oregon
