World Cerebral Palsy (CP) Day is a movement of people with cerebral palsy and their families, and the organizations that support them, in more than 60 countries. The World CP Day Committee works actively to support countries around the world to take action to improve the lives of people with CP and their families - https://worldcpday.org/about-
The World CP Day is a great occasion to discuss and analyze your own approach, your team and your institution approach to cerebral palsy problems and to reestablish the importance of some particular aspects of treatment, the dose and the intensity of it, to make the life of your patients more free from medical care and more involved, to stimulate their participation in the regular life.
