UCPLA/K.E.N. Project (Kids with Exceptional Needs)

The UCP/K.E.N. Project is a non-profit parent training and advocacy organization providing workshops training programs and conferences for parents of children with any type of disability.  There are two meetings per month that are free and open to parents and professionals who work with children with special needs.  During these meetings, parents are provided the opportunity to present issues they are currently experiencing.  An Advocate and an Attorney respond with suggestions, referrals and ideas for solving the problems. Spanish language translation is available a week before the scheduled meeting. 

To request translation or if you have any other questions about the K.E.N Project, please call Dina Kaplan at (818) 222-5414.

Meetings are held on Wednesday evenings from 7:00 - 9:00 p.m. at UCP's Administrative Office unless noted otherwise.
