The Cerebral Palsy Association of BC is proud to announce our new seniors’ mentoring program – You and Me: Aging Without Limits.


Aging with a disability presents many challenges – medical, financial, social and emotional. Our program will pair mentors with mentees to develop and work toward setting and achieving personal goals aimed at navigating the changes and challenges that are part of aging with a disability. The program relies on the lived experience of our more senior members to provide connection, guidance and support for those approaching their senior years.

Monthly meetings will provide social and recreational opportunities as well as presentations on related topics.

For people living with cerebral palsy and other disabilities, issues of aging can be present at any chronological age. Anyone confronting issues of aging, or who self-identifies as a senior is welcome to join us! The program is not limited to a specific age.

Whether you see yourself as a mentor, or as someone seeking the guidance of a mentor, we invite you to join us in this new adventure. Our program launches on Friday, July 20th at the Roundhouse Community Centre, Room B (181 Roundhouse Mews) from 12:30 – 3 pm. Refreshments will be provided!

For more information, contact Denzil at the CPABC office at 604-408-9484 or email [email protected].

This year, our Life Without Limits Gala is all about learning without limits.

Many have experienced being a student at some point but couple that with living with a disability and the weight of responsibility can become tremendous. Cerebral palsy is the world’s most common childhood disability and with rising prevalence, aspiring students in BC will need support to reach their goals in education.

That’s why we’re focusing on giving tudents with cerebral palsy a better chance at a successful post-secondary career this year.

Proceeds of the Life Without Limits Gala will raise critical funds for our programs and services, including the Tanabe Bursary. The financial assistance program helps students with cerebral palsy attend a post-secondary institution of their choice by significantly cutting down their tuition costs.

You can expect:

  • Presentations from leaders in the disability community and our generous sponsors
  • Live entertainment
  • Sit down dinner
  • Silent Auction
  • Live Auction
