Mission & Purpose

UCP of Central Florida is dedicated to providing children equal access to programs, services, and experiences that help them achieve their full potential. We are a nonprofit organization that operates Inclusive Charter Schools, Multidisciplinary Therapy Clinics, Specialized Vocational Programs and much more. All of our services and programs are driven by the commitment to create opportunities that educate, inspire, and encourage students of all abilities. As a Charter School: UCP Charter Schools have been Central Florida pioneers in inclusive education. They took the bold step to raise the bar academically for all students while also providing customized instruction so that students can excel at every level. Campuses are smaller than traditional schools, which creates a community culture where teachers, students, parents, and staff all feel seen and valued. As a Therapy Clinic: UCP of Central Florida has Physical, Occupational, and Speech-Language therapy clinics at every campus. Therapy services are available to students and out-patient clients alike. UCP’s multidisciplinary therapy team collaborates with parents and teachers to bring a holistic and practical application to a child’s therapy goals.
