UCAN is an active NCCARE360 community partner. Case managers, providers, and community organizations across the state can send referrals to UCAN directly through the NCCARE360 platform.
UCAN follows a "No Wrong Door" referral approach — meaning wherever a client first reaches out, whether directly to UCAN or through a partner organization, we help connect them to the right services, including Healthy Opportunities Pilot eligibility screening and other community resources. No one is turned away without direction to the support they need.
