Every fall and spring, CP Unlimited’s Hudson Valley Division plans and puts on sparkling and glamorous events for the people we support, the CP team, local leaders, and area partners. What began as a glittery dinner has grown to become a twice-yearly, anticipated opportunity to celebrate the achievements of the many families impacted by the Agency and our commitment to helping people with disabilities achieve fulfilling lives. In addition, CP’s formal programs provide a platform for allies and those affiliated with the I/DD community to recognize collective steps forward and marshal these dynamic advocates to motivate further change.
Below, we look back at our previous Spring and Fall formals, and provide a calendar for upcoming events and spaces in which to contribute to the CP mission:
