Advocacy & Public Policy
Easter Seals UCP has a clear stake in public policy. Children and adults with disabilities disproportionately rely on government programs in order to access education, health care, housing, transportation and employment services. In addition, Easter Seals UCP receives a majority of its funding from state and local government agencies and Medicaid reimbursements.
Satisfaction surveys are conducted annually with the people we support, as well as families and guardians. Our results are compared to other organizations across the country. While we scored highly in most areas, we still have work to do – especially in the area of “choice”.
