Who developed My CP Guide?
People with cerebral palsy are at the heart of the development of the website, which was funded under the Australian Government’s Information Linkages and Capacity Building program (ILC). ILC provides funding to organisations to deliver projects in the community that benefit Australians with disabilities, their carers, and families.
We have located and assessed the most current and credible information that the world has to offer. The team of people who have compiled this information for you has experience in disability services, education, research, resource creation, and with lived experience of cerebral palsy. We work alongside with people that understand you including people with cerebral palsy, their families, medical experts, allied health, researchers, and advocates to provide information you can trust.
