We have ideas, experience and momentum for our 2026 event — please let us know you will help make this happen! Talk to us at: WalkUP@myupha.com
- Be a “block captain”. We are organizing University Park into 12 sections, and need a block captain for each section who will help welcome new neighbors into the University Park Community and facilitate information about our neighborhood. Please contact president@upcral.org
- Get involved with University Park Village Raleigh — our new initiative to support our University Park neighbors who would like to stay in their homes throughout their lives, even as they age, and who will remain vital, contributing members of our community. We are the fourth such “Village” in Wake County. “Neighbor Helping Neighbor” and other committees are activating — we welcome involvement from neighbors of all ages. Contact: info@upvral.org
Calling all health professionals, social workers, community organizers and allied professionals in University Park: our new “Village” needs your expertise! Please help us to envision the possibilities and plan our successes. Contact: president@upvral.org

Talk it UP — University Park’s new communications forum, for private use by University Park Community members, is about to be launched. Using Groups.io, users have the option to either log in or use via email-only to be in touch with University Park neighbors on this secure listserv. Neighbors will “Talk it UP” in non-anonymous, moderated communications, further enriching our community. Groups will include: kids/families, seniors, for sale and giveaways, lost and found, fun/social, community announcements and more. Stay tuned and get ready to “Talk it UP” with your neighbors. You must be a UPC member to participate and must go on-line to give us updated info and permission to add you to the listserv.
