LETTER FROM THE CHAIR

If you have found your way to our website, you are most likely someone whose life has been touched in some way by cerebral palsy. Maybe you live your life with CP. Maybe you are a parent who has just learned – or who has known for a while – that your child has CP. Maybe you are a caregiver who works with people with CP or related disabilities. Maybe you are a special needs teacher or school administrator. Maybe a scientist or medical researcher with an interest in brain injury and recovery. Maybe you just know someone who has CP. Or are just curious about CP.

Whatever your reason for reaching out to CPF, welcome! Our Foundation seeks to change lives today for people living with CP and related disabilities. We hope you will find our website a source of information and connection as well as community. We invite you to visit our site frequently as we seek to provide not only updates on the important work we do, but also the most up to date and useful information we can about CP and other related disabilities

As our CEO relates in his letter, our mission is to transform lives today for people with CP and related disabilities through research, innovation, and collaboration. As a parent of a wonderful child with CP, I am only too personally aware of the challenges faced by those who have CP. I firmly believe we have the power to make lives better for those affected by CP via the good work of our Foundation and our partners – through impactful research, innovative technology and collaborative networks.

We invite you to explore our website and to learn more about our Foundation, our remarkable initiatives, and about CP in general. I also hope you’ll feel inspired by the few videos we are posting today, and the many we will be bringing you in the future.

We welcome your thoughts, perspectives, stories, and of course financial contributions as we work with you and the CP community to support our vitally important work. Please stay in touch with us our on site by signing up today and by following our many social media posts.
