"[UDA has] become an extended arm of our family and I’m not sure how our family would have handled this transition without them. The UDA staff truly cares and honestly wants [the students] to succeed. ... What an amazing opportunity this has been for our son, and the UDA staff makes it comforting for us to know our son is in good hands."
