Cerebral palsy (CP) is a lifelong condition. The Department of Neurology at WashU Medicine created Cerebral Palsy Family Day to encourage families to build lifelong connections with each other and to plan for full and long lives for their children with CP.
CP Family Day is an annual event at the Missouri Botanical Garden that is free to all families of children with motor disabilities in the greater St. Louis area. Programming for the day is split into two separate tracks, allowing caregivers to connect and gain resources while children with CP and their siblings enjoy fun activities in the Garden.
