The Edmonton Cerebral Palsy Association (ECPA) is a volunteer-driven, nonprofit organization serving individuals with cerebral palsy and their families in the Edmonton area. Founded in 1951 by parents seeking support and advocacy, the association brings together families, friends, and caregivers to help improve the lives of people affected by cerebral palsy. Its work centers on funding assistance, helping with the financial costs of purchasing essential equipment. Through this support, ECPA aims to provide individuals and families with practical resources that can encourage greater independence and participation in daily life.

ECPA’s approach is guided by inclusion, empowerment, dignity, respect, and community. The organization promotes a welcoming environment where people of all abilities are valued, and works to help individuals with cerebral palsy live fulfilling lives. It also emphasizes connection and mutual support among individuals, families, and caregivers. Donations help ECPA provide resources and assistance to those it serves. By combining community involvement, advocacy, and equipment funding support, the association seeks to make a meaningful difference for people affected by cerebral palsy in Edmonton.
