About Us – Vision, Mission, Objectives
Vision
We currently accommodate 30 permanent residential residents, and 3 day care residents.
The fact that the UCPA has survived over the last 5 decades encourages us to believe that with the help of our wonderful supporters our vision is indeed achievable.
Our ‘vision’ is ultimately to complete the ‘Healthcare Training Centre’, to provide healthcare care workers with an opportunity to acquire the necessary training and skills to take care of mentally and physically disabled children and adults.
Mission
