The mission of Achieve Tampa Bay is to guide and assist families and individuals with any disability or other barriers to achieve their full potential, resulting in community inclusion and independence. The organization was incorporated in 1953 to meet the needs of children with disabilities and their families, specifically those with cerebral palsy. Today, United Cerebral Palsy (UCP) of Tampa Bay offers its services as Achieve Tampa Bay, reflecting their commitment to serve all ages of citizens with disabilities to achieve inclusion and independence.
	Achieve Tampa Bay’s services are grouped in four categories: children, adult, families and Doula services for expecting mothers. Children services include physical, speech and occupational therapy. Disabled adults are helped to participate in the workforce through vocational rehabilitation. Achieve Tampa Bay assists families with finding appropriate, community-based preschool, after-school and summer programming for children 0-12 years of age with any disability.
United Way supports Achieve Tampa Bay’s therapy for persons with Cerebral Palsy, employment and training services and child care outreach.
