Help Shape Our Future
CPATH Texas is exploring the creation of an Advisory Committee created to elevate the voices and lived experiences of adults with cerebral palsy.
As an adult with cerebral palsy, your voice matters. By sharing your experiences and preferences, you help guide the development of future CPATH Texas programs, services, and opportunities for all people living with cerebral palsy.
This brief survey ensures that our work reflects the real needs and priorities of the adult CP community.

Testimonials
“I think one of the biggest unique issues adults with CP face is that so many systems, services, and public perceptions are centered around children. Once you become an adult, there can be a real loss of support, community, resources, and visibility, even though CP is lifelong and often becomes more physically complicated with age.”
“Each person is an individual first who has CP. Even if you have the same GMFC level each individual presents very differently although there are similarities in certain characteristics, they’re also many differences.”
“I think it’s important for the committee to remember that adults with CP are not a single type of person and that meaningful inclusion requires listening to a wide variety of lived experiences, support needs, communication styles, ages, and goals.“
