Cerebral Palsy | A Place to Seek Support and Connection
Cerebral Palsy Diagnosis
A cerebral palsy diagnosis, can change the direction of life, in ways that no one could be prepared. Whether you are a parent, caregiver, or family member, the path forward can feel very uncertain, isolating and overwhelming.
At Help and Hope For you, we offer connection, perspective and access to resources-so parents, families and caregivers, do not have to navigate this journey alone.
This is a quiet, supportive space, for those working tirelessly, with the challenges of having a loved one with CP (Cerebral Palsy).
If you have any medical, or mental health concerns, for you, or you child/adult, with CP, please contact your child’s/adult’s physician or therapist. If you cannot reach your physician, please go to your nearest emergency room, so that they may decide the best course of action, for you, or your child/adult, with CP.
