Life without limits for people with disabilities™
Forward | Update Profile | Action Center Homepage
The realization that your child is going to face the many challenges and obstacles encountered by those who live with a disability can be a lonely, frightening and confusing time. In fact, it is clear that the path set for a child with special needs during the first months of life can have a tremendous impact on their later progress. Many parents who have found assistance from United Cerebral Palsy (UCP) in the past have reported that finding the organization and receiving the information and assistance we provide has been a turning point for them and the quality of life for their loved ones.
At UCP, we decided we need to do more for these families. We want to embrace each and every one of these families and provide as much support and comfort as possible during these difficult times.
Since it is impossible for us to physically be there all the time for these families, we have developed a way to be there via the internet all the time 24/7. Together, with leading experts in the field of developmental disabilities and in collaboration with our UCP New York City affiliate, we have developed a unique and new Web site.
We want to introduce you to My Child Without Limits.
My Child without Limits Web site at, www.MyChildWithoutLimits.org, connects parents with information, resources and other parents of children newly diagnosed with a developmental delay or disability. "The Web site provides families the tools they need to make decisions that will help them build a life without limits." says Anita Porco, Vice President of Affiliate Network.
We hope that you will visit www.MyChildWithoutLimits.org and see all it has to offer, and make a special contribution to UCP at https://www.ucp.org/ucp_generalsub.cfm/1/5/26. Your donation will help UCP to continue projects like this and the many other programs at UCP affiliates — that every day serve 176,000 people living with disabilities.
With our monthly giving club — Partners for Possibilities — You can spread your donation over the course of the year with monthly charges to your checking account or credit card. Making a donation of just $20 a month will result in $240 per year being used to support services to people with disabilities. Use the button below to begin your plan to make monthly donations. You may cancel at any time.

You can start or reply to a discussion topic, create a journal, or even post a video. The possible topics that you can engage in and exchange ideas about are without limits.
With your support, UCP can look forward with believable hope that we can enable all people, with or without a disability, to live full, independent and productive lives.
Sincerely,
Stephen Bennett
President and CEO
P.S. We have achieved a great deal at UCP recently. A great example of that has been the critical work that we have been doing to establish My Child Without Limits. I urge you to continue to touch the lives of the 176,000 people who turn to our affiliates on a daily basis.
