In 1946, nine Mothers met in a waiting room at Children's Hospital. These Mothers found themselves faced with the difficult decision of how to care for their children with Cerebral Palsy. At that time, institutions were the only available option, and both opportunities for public education and the chance to lead a productive and functional life was non-existent for children with disabilities.
These brave Founding Mothers planted the seeds for inclusive educational environments, employment opportunities for the most underemployed population and provision of critical family support services. At Ability Connection Colorado, we strive every day to continue this important legacy.
