Offering Support and Hope to People with Cerebral Palsy
Mission:
Cerebral Palsy Alliance Singapore (CPAS) is a social service agency established in 1957. CPAS provides people with cerebral palsy and multiple disabilities with early intervention, special education, rehabilitation services, day activity centre programmes as well as vocational training and gainful employment in Singapore. Through active advocacy and the support of equal opportunities for anyone with cerebral palsy and multiple disabilities, CPAS hopes to empower these individuals by helping them realise their full potential and lead fulfilled, dignified lives. Driven by our core values of hope, empowerment, aspiration, respect and trust, the organisation is focused on delivering fully integrated programmes and services at the highest standards.
Why it matters:
2020 was a particularly challenging year for everyone, but especially those with disabilities. Like many other charities, CPAS has struggled to maintain any sense of normality throughout the COVID–19 pandemic. The charity offers an essential support system the dignifies and fulfils the lives of young people with special needs, and as a result, is an integral organisation to so many individuals and families. We at LEWIS hope we can help in any way we can to ensure CPAS can continue this work. Through the LEWIS causes programme, we are proud to support the amazing and inspiring mission and staff at CPAS.
