Our February Employee Spotlight is Emma! Emma has worked for UCP Heartland for four months as a Teacher’s Aide at our Child Development Center in Columbia, MO. In this role, she cares for children in the infant room and assists in the other rooms with the older children as needed.

Emma enjoys seeing the babies hit milestones and grow into their personalities. She is proud to know the lasting impact she has on each child, even from a young age. She shared she thought the babies may not remember her when they moved up rooms, but she still gets big smiles from them when she sees them.

She feels others should work for UCP Heartland because of the opportunity and environment for professional and personal growth. “I look forward to coming to work every day; that alone would easily make me recommend UCP Heartland for others to work at. I feel so lucky to be part of such an incredible work environment!”

Thank you, Emma!

🚨Please Take Action: Protect Day Services for People with Disabilities🚨

Missouri's proposed FY2027 budget includes a 33% cut to Day Services for individuals with developmental disabilities. These services are essential for individualized opportunities, community connections, and overall, meaningful days. Cuts would deeply impact individuals, families, and local providers like UCP Heartland.

Here's how YOU can help:
Our statewide partner, Starling Missouri, has made it easy to take action with advocacy tools including:
✔ A one-click VoterVoice Advocacy Tool
✔ Fact sheets & one-page summaries
✔ Sample advocacy letters for families

Tell legislators: NO CUTS to DD services. Protect our community and our day programs.
Take action now:

Every voice matters. Thank you for standing with people with disabilities and helping protect the services our community depends on!
