CPATH CEREBRAL PALSY AWARENESS TRANSITION HOPE

The birth of a child changes everything! Parents experience love and joy while adapting to a new schedule, sleepless nights, family adjustments, and fears. Parents whose children are diagnosed with cerebral palsy are no different, but they will encounter the added stress of ongoing doctor appointments, multiple medical specialists, escalating medical bills, possible health implications, adaptive home requirements, ongoing therapies, unknown future implications, and much more. The life path they planned to walk down has dramatically changed. They must take a new path with challenges never anticipated.

That’s why we created CPATH, Cerebral Palsy Awareness Transition Hope. We experienced that life-changing moment. In Central Texas, there were virtually no organizations or communities directly supporting cerebral palsy. There was no one to call to find resources and support from like families, respite opportunities, or financial assistance.
