UCP Seguin of Greater Chicago is a leading nonprofit organization dedicated to creating life without limits for people with intellectual and developmental disabilities. Through a comprehensive network of programs, UCP Seguin provides residential services for both children and adults, employment and vocational supports, life skills training, social recreation opportunities, specialized foster care, community-based services, and assistive technology solutions. The organization empowers children and adults with disabilities to achieve greater independence, meaningful community inclusion, and an enhanced quality of life while offering compassionate, person-centered support tailored to each individual's needs.


Our weekend respite program provides individuals with developmental disabilities the opportunity to build essential life skills that promote greater independence. Participants also enjoy social and recreational activities each weekend, with a strong emphasis on community integration and inclusion. The program is designed to help individuals develop the skills and confidence needed to successfully transition to living more independently outside the family home in the future.


We provide life skills training, assistive technology, meaningful employment, and a place to call home for people with disabilities. We place and support them in community jobs throughout the Greater Chicago area, including in our own social enterprises, Seguin Auto Center, Seguin Garden, and Gifts.


We ensure that adults with disabilities can live and socialize within their community by offering residential services in multiple small, community-based homes. And we support their physical and mental well-being and vocational needs with training centers across the region.


We also give a home to children and adolescents, with nurturing foster care from birth to 21, including specialized care for children with behavior or medical challenges.
