United Cerebral Palsy to open its annual grant application process on National Cerebral Palsy Awareness Day, March 25
The United Cerebral Palsy Research Initiative for the second year will begin accepting grant applications for awards of up to $20,000 on National Cerebral Palsy Awareness Day, March 25, for translational research addressing early diagnosis and treatment of cerebral palsy and related neurodevelopmental disabilities.
“These are very exciting times in the world of scientific research into the causes and treatments of cerebral palsy,” said UCP President and CEO Armando Contreras. “The goal of our grant program is to help fund cutting-edge science, including genomic research and other groundbreaking methods of diagnosis, that help identify and treat cerebral palsy and other IDDs as soon as possible in a person’s life.”
