Mission Statement
The mission of Sunrise Children's Services 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.
About This Cause
Sunrise Children’s Services, Inc (formerly United Cerebral Palsy of Tampa Bay, Inc/UCP) was organized in 1953 with mission “to guide and assist families and individuals with any disability or other barriers to achieve their full potential resulting in community inclusion and independence.” Sunrise Children’s Services (SCS) Early Childhood Education Preschool Program was founded 31 years ago to provide services to families with typically developing children, children with developmental disabilities and those children “at-risk” for developmental delays. This program was created during a time when most families were becoming dual income families and there were limited childcare options for children with disabilities. SCS provides preschool programming focused on a child’s cognitive, language, physical, social, and emotional development. Their students learn and play side-by-side in an inclusive, all-abilities learning environment. The program is open to any student, regardless of disability or delayed development. SCS’s program serves children with developmental delays or disabilities, ages six weeks through five years of age who are from low- and moderate-income families. Our focus is on serving the whole family and not just focusing on the individual child. We are the only provider of true inclusionary early education in the Tampa Bay area. There is a wealth of evidence supporting the lifelong positive impacts of early, high quality educational services for all children, especially the vulnerable population that we serve. The foundation for our children’s lives — and our entire community — depends on their experiences during early childhood. Good experiences lead to better academic outcomes, employment opportunities, earning potential and health. It is imperative that we are aware that the will first five years of a child’s life will predict how the rest of it will turn out.
