Cerebral Palsy Strong

www.cerebralpalsystrong.com

My name is Katy Fetters, I am a community organizer and I call upon all those who are #cpstrong. Cerebral Palsy Strong exists as a collective of young adults with a physical disability who've found that we need greater social & emotional support to navigate through life, careers, and relationships amid the challenges that come along with CP. In a world that emphasizes a return to "normalcy", we realize there is no overcoming lifelong disability. And so, we must learn to live and grow up with CP despite this expectation. Our growing community—online and offline—allows space for us to narrate this dynamic experience. Disability has been with us our whole lives, but we've been online since 2009. First as TeenCP— an early blog that connected us all far and wide. And later, in 2017 we evolved this effort into CPstrong as a platform to share stories on social media from individuals with CP. Our hashtag, #cpstrong continues to fuel our collective online identity, disabled representation, and creates a network of support for our peers as we've entered adulthood. In 2019, we organized our very first CP Social, a live gathering for the purpose of community-building and socializing. We plan to do more of this as we develop our organization on opencollective.com/cpstrong
