CEREBRAL PALSY EXPO

It’s finally here – “CP Inspires” a parent driven EXPO for families and caregivers of children and adults who have Cerebral Palsy!

SAVE THE DATE. March 27, 2010
Don’t miss this exciting opportunity to spread awareness!

The Expo will bring together, in one location, parents, caregivers, doctors, dentists, therapists, service providers, and organizations that work with children and adults with Cerebral Palsy.

Raising awareness of Cerebral Palsy is imperative!
Attached are two PDF files: a “vendor/parent invite” as well as a
“save the date flyer” you may post and distribute. Please forward the information to anyone you believe may benefit from this opportunity.
How many people have Cerebral Palsy?It is estimated that some 764,000 children and adults in the United States manifest one or more of the symptoms of cerebral palsy. Cerebral Palsy’s prevalence is now 3 per 1,000 live births. Currently, about 8,000 babies and infants are diagnosed with the condition each year. In addition, some 1,200 - 1,500 preschool age children are recognized each year to have cerebral palsy.

Creating awareness, sharing resources, inspiring others, expanding your knowledge base is a complete recipe for building a supportive foundation of opportunity for children and adults with Cerebral Palsy.

We look forward to your participation on March 27, 2010 – See you soon!
