The Calgary Cerebral Palsy Association (also the “CCPA”) is a Calgary based non-profit organization and registered charity dedicated to our mission of providing understanding, support, and resources to individuals and their families affected by cerebral palsy. The CCPA works with various individuals, corporations and community organizations to provide support services, programs and funding to fulfill our mission. Our membership consists of families of children with cerebral palsy, adult individuals with cerebral palsy and interested organizations. In responding to the largest segment of our membership base and to provide services that are not sufficiently addressed through other community sources, the CCPA has tailored many of its services and programs to assist children diagnosed with cerebral palsy, hence our motto, “Light Up A Child’s Life”.
