Serving Southwestern Oregon

United Community Action Network

Creating solutions to poverty, improving lives in our community.

UCAN provides a wide array of social, health, early education and family services throughout Douglas and Josephine County, and offers a few of our programs in other counties such as Klamath and Lake. We also host both AmeriCorps and AmeriCorps Seniors programming, building the capacity of partner agencies. UCAN has a “no wrong door” approach to service delivery, ensuring that a person who seeks services is linked with the appropriate program or agency providing the service in the community. Our co-located, comprehensive service system reflects best practices in providing services.
