Who Benefits:The Cerebral Pals: |
In the 1940s, children and adults with Cerebral Palsy weren’t afforded the same rights to educational and medical services as their non-handicapped peers. Parents and concerned citizens recognized this inequity and, in 1947, a small group came together to establish the United Cerebral Palsy League. By 1949, the group had grown and incorporated to form a treatment center and school for children with Cerebral Palsy.
The Cerebral Palsy League now operates two facilities located in Union and Cranford, N.J. The Union Campus is home to Early Intervention Services, Pediatric Medical Day Care, and The Jardine Academy Preschool and Primary Level Programs. The Cranford Campus houses the Adult Vocational Center, The Jardine Academy Intermediate and Secondary Programs, as well as their business offices. The Cerebral Palsy League’s programs currently serve hundreds each year from our communities.
Today, as in the beginning, The Cerebral Palsy League, Inc. is committed to the philosophy of helping people with developmental disabilities to obtain their optimal level of functional independence, while maintaining their highest possible quality of life.
