Veteran Resources for Cerebral Palsy

Cerebral Palsy Guide is an organization dedicated to educating individuals and families about Cerebral Palsy. Cerebral Palsy is a neurological disorder affecting motor and developmental skills. Our goal is to help families use any methods we can to make sure children have the support they need. We strive to provide answers and guidance to ensure that families receive the assistance they need to help improve their overall quality of life. 

The U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) offers benefits to service members who have children with special needs. However, many military families are unaware of these benefits and may miss out on accessing much-needed support. Some VA benefits include tax-free monthly payouts, Survivors Pensions, and free or reduced-cost health care. Private medical, financial, and emotional support resources are also available. Learn more about resources that can help you and your family.

Veterans with children who have special needs are likely to face unique challenges accessing comprehensive health care. This is primarily due to limitations in VA health care services and living in remote areas of the country where there are fewer specialized treatment centers.
