Cerebral Palsy Research is ongoing and abundant. There are many national programs and foundations that are dedicated to pursuing the prevention of Cerebral Palsy and dedicated to improving the quality of life for children and individuals with Cerebral Palsy.

Major Cerebral Palsy Research Programs include The United Cerebral Palsy Research and Educational Foundation, The Center for Disease Control and Prevention, The National Institutes of Health, and the National Institute of Disability and Rehabilitation Research.

These Cerebral Palsy Research programs focus on addressing several issues concerning Cerebral Palsy such as the factors that predispose the developing brain to injury.

Researching the causes of injury to the developing fetal brain and the ways the developing newborn brain can be protected, will hopefully lead to effective treatments for the specific disabilities of children and people living with Cerebral Palsy.

Cerebral Palsy research also leads to several important statistics. With over 550,000 individuals in the United States with disabilities due to Cerebral Palsy, this disorder has become the second most common disorder of the developing brain and continues to gradually increase because of the growing number of new cases and the lengthened life expectancy of persons with Cerebral Palsy.

Around 9,750 new cases of Cerebral Palsy occur each year. 70% of Cerebral Palsy disorders occur prior to birth, 20% occurs during the birthing process, and 10% occurs during the first few years of a newborns life.
