Cerebral Palsy Awareness Day

The PoWER Lab hosts the annual Cerebral Palsy Awareness Day Event! Cerebral palsy is the most common motor disability a child can have, but awareness regarding this disability remains low. Our goal is to bring awareness to the disorder and create a community for individuals with cerebral palsy. This event is sponsored by Boys Town National Research, The Institute for Human Neuroscience, and other organizations. To become a sponsor email: power@boystown.org

Children and families can participate in barrier free and inclusive games, food, and fun! This annual event is a chance for the Omaha community to come together for fun, but also create more awareness and support for those with cerebral palsy.

It brings more awareness to research that needs to be done through NIH. It’s one of the least funded areas actually even though it’s the most common motor disability that a child could have.
— Dr. Max Kurz, Research Scientist
