Cerebral Palsy Alliance

Visit their website
Cerebral Palsy Alliance has been operating for over 80 years. The organisation was developed by a group of parents of children with cerebral palsy and was originally known as the Spastic Centre of New South Wales.

For over a decade the CPA has been driving international research into the prevention, treatment and cure of cerebral palsy through the CPA Research Foundation and Research Institute.

CPA is committed to improving outcomes for people with cerebral palsy through global research into prevention, treatment and cure.

Vision and mission

Cerebral Palsy Alliance's purpose is to help babies, children, teenagers and adults living with cerebral palsy and similar disabilities lead the most comfortable, independent and inclusive lives possible.

They imagine a world where people with disability are fully included, active and contributing members of society, realising their full potential.

They deliver world class services, community, advocacy and policy influence, training, global research and the advancement of enabling technology.
