UCAP, a nonprofit 501(c) (3), was established in 1964 and is the leading advocate for those facing deficiencies in education, affordable housing, economic stability, and health care access. UCAP is the official Community Action Agency for Prince George’s County, Md.
We provide services to individuals and families whose quality of life has been negatively impacted by poverty, unemployment, homelessness, crime, and inadequate public health services.
Through our efforts, women in PG County and their families, are able to achieve stabilization and become self–sufficient members of the greater community.
Breaking the cycle of poverty starts with individual community stakeholders that come together to create or stabilize the foundation for future generations to come. It is through modeling good stewardship that we pass this legacy of service.
