Honoring our United Cerebral Palsy Heritage
In 2017, we made a pivotal decision to change our name from United Cerebral Palsy of South Florida to United Community Options of South Florida. This transformation was more than just a rebranding; it marked a new chapter in our evolution and growth, reflecting dedication to supporting individuals with a wide range of disabilities, extending beyond cerebral palsy.
While our identity has evolved, our core values and dedication to honoring our United Cerebral Palsy heritage remained steadfast. We’re still the same team you know and trust, just with a new look and a renewed focus on shaping a South Florida where people of all abilities and backgrounds are seen for their potential and ability and are given the support they need to live life beyond limits.
Our name change was a significant milestone, and it has only strengthened our resolve to serve you better. We look forward to serving you under our new name and are excited about the future!
Thank you for being a part of our story.
