I’m ecstatic that the first-ever Cerebral Palsy motion in Los Angeles has passed! Voted on by the Los Angeles Board of Supervisors on March 6, 2024, this historic achievement was initiated by Inclusive Sol, a dedicated cerebral palsy (CP) hub I created to provide support and guidance for parents and caregivers of children with cerebral palsy as they navigate caring for a child with a disability.
Inclusive Sol didn’t just advocate for a proclamation—the focus was on tangible change!
Los Angeles County now stands poised to lead the nation in fostering a more inclusive environment for individuals with cerebral palsy and their families. Through enhanced local resources, refined data collection at the county level, and streamlined access to essential services, together we can make a significant impact.
Inclusive Sol envisions a world where families navigating the challenges of cerebral palsy find solace, support, and empowerment within our community. Through collaborative efforts, we strive to break down barriers and create a more inclusive society where all individuals have equitable access to the resources and opportunities they deserve.
A sweet highlight was seeing all five of the Board of Supervisors wearing green ribbons and a few wore green tops to honor Cerebral Palsy Awareness Month.
