“Flipside Thrift,” our new UCP of the North Bay Thrift Center is located at 6591 Commerce Blvd. in Rohnert Park. UCP of the North Bay has owned and operated multiple thrift centers for many years in Solano, Sutter, Yolo, and Santa Cruz Counties – and now Sonoma County! All proceeds support our programs for children and adults with developmental disabilities.
Cypress School Update
Cypress welcomes everyone back from the Thanksgiving holiday break. We had one cohort quarantine due to an exposure. The individual has recovered from their symptoms and no others have been infected. Schools will remain open even in the event the Governor orders a shelter-in-place in the coming weeks. Cypress is sad to say goodbye to Morgan Wood, longtime staff and teacher who is moving to San Diego. We congratulate Naz Torres-Casso who assumes the role of teacher for the Redwood classroom.
Adult Day Program Update
UCPNB presents the Holiday Spectacular on Zoom, December 23rd beginning at 1 pm. Join us for music, holiday trivia, an ugly sweater contest and loads of fun and social time including a visit from Santa Claus himself!
