UCP de Arizona central establece fecha de apertura y corte de cinta para nueva instalación
UCP Downtown – East at Ability360 will open Feb. 22, just six miles from UCP’s original Downtown location
United Cerebral Palsy of Central Arizona (UCP), a 501(c)(3) nonprofit charity organization dedicated to helping children and adults who have a wide array of disabilities, has announced an official opening date and ribbon cutting ceremony of its newest location. UCP Downtown – East, located at the Ability360 Campus, will open on Monday, Feb. 22, with a ribbon cutting ceremony occurring at 4 p.m. the same day.
“We are so excited to maximize the opportunities of being located in Ability360,” said Brenda Hanserd, chief executive officer of UCP of Central Arizona. “UCP Downtown – East will also provide expanded opportunities for children and families with an open outdoor area for therapies, as well as greater access to community partners who are located on-site.”
La ceremonia de las 4 pm también se transmitirá mediante UCP’s Facebook Live, permitiendo a las familias, simpatizantes y socios recorrer las instalaciones ubicadas en Ability360 mientras se mantienen las medidas de distanciamiento físico.
Ubicado en 5025 y 5031 E. Washington St. en Phoenix, el campus Ability360 está diseñado para empoderar a las personas que viven con discapacidades, y cuenta con el Ability360 Sports & Fitness Center, una instalación de 45,000 pies cuadrados que alberga múltiples deportes, deportes acuáticos y oportunidades recreativas. La ubicación ofrece un amplio estacionamiento y está ubicada en el sistema de transporte público Valley Metro Rail.
“This move underscores the need for and value of long-term partnerships,” added Hanserd. “Corporate partnerships open up a world of possibilities to provide therapy to children and families through the generous giving from those organizations.”
Children can be referred to UCP to benefit from the many services and therapies that are offered. UCP Downtown – East will provide programs in pediatric feeding as well as occupational, physical and speech therapies.
