March is Cerebral Palsy Awareness Month 💚

Cerebral palsy is the most common motor disability in childhood, yet it’s often misunderstood. It affects movement, muscle tone, and posture—but it doesn’t define a person’s intelligence, potential, or worth.

This month is about raising awareness, promoting inclusion, and celebrating the strength and resilience of individuals living with CP. It’s also a time to listen, learn, and support families and advocates who are working every day to build a more accessible world.

Let’s choose kindness, patience, and understanding—not just this month, but every day.

💚 Wear green
💚 Share knowledge
💚 Support accessibility
💚 Amplify voices that deserve to be heard
Together, we can create a more inclusive future.
