Cerebral Palsy Association to Host Gala for Research

The Cerebral Palsy International Research Foundation (CPIRF) will host a gala next month at the Four Seasons in Los Angeles to raise money for a new research initiative.

Recent data released by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention show that the incidence of cerebral palsy is highest among African Americans and the cerebral palsy association CPIRF wants to focus more research in this area.

Money raised during the Power Heroes Gala on December 3, 2008 will go toward funding research to identify the causes behind racial disparities in cerebral palsy and similar developmental disorders. To learn more about this event, please visit the CPIRF website.
