One out of every 5 (20%) Americans has a disability.
It is estimated that some 500,000 children and adults in the United States alone suffer from one or more symptoms of Cerebral Palsy.

The despair felt by parents, relatives, and loved ones of victims of this disease can be overwhelming. But as quoted by a parent of a child afflicted with C.P., "Cerebral Palsy is a defect in motor functioning, not a defect in life itself".

Through hope, love, understanding and determination, we can make Cerebral Palsy not a barrier to keep us from lifes fulfillments, but a mere obstacle that you and your loved one can climb and conquer together...
