"I am looking forward to a great term with UCP. The schools provide vital support for parents and students of all different abilities in myriad ways.

Sos has been active with UCP for over 6 years, serving on the Board of Directors and helping to fundraise for the organization.
"I was hooked early on. As soon as I saw how kids of all different abilities interacted and learned from one another, I was in. It really moved me to see kids learning together and from one another like that," noted Sos.
