A $250,000 grant is allowing United Cerebral Palsy of Central Arizona to undertake outdoor renovations at its Laura Dozer campus in north Phoenix.
A recent groundbreaking signified the beginning of the project, the first the campus has undergone in 20 years, according to a UCP release.
The renovation includes an adaptive basketball court, artificial turf addition, installation of an accessible putting green, a greenhouse for a special needs gardening curriculum, wheelchair-accessible planters, misting system for climate control, an event space with canopy cover, adaptive exercise equipment, new landscaping and updated sidewalks.
“This project exemplifies our dedication to empowering adults with special needs and is centered on our continuous focus on inclusivity and growth for our members,” saidGail Stelling, UCP vice president of Adult Program Operations.
The money for the project comes from a grant from the state of Arizona and Arizona Health Care Cost Containment System.
The day treatment center is also receiving a new name, ArizonAbility Adult Day Program.
Groundbreaking for the ArizonAbility Adult Day Program expansion project took place in April at the campus, 1801 W. Parkside Lane. After demolition, construction will take place from June to September, UCP officials said.
