Supported Living at UCP Oregon
Since 1977, UCP Oregon has helped adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities (I/DD) live independently with support that’s tailored to their goals, needs, and preferences.
That might be your own home, living with family, or another place that works for you.
There’s no one-size-fits-all here. At UCP Oregon, you’re in charge.
Once you’re enrolled in Supported Living, you’ll have access to one-on-one consistent staffing and schedule, a UCP Coordinator who knows you well, and an entire department available to respond to your needs, goals and interests.
