History of the OFCP
In 1947, the families of children with cerebral palsy came together across the province to exchange ideas and address the need for services and programs in their communities.
With little to no government support, these parents gathered in church basements and spare classrooms, collectively striving to provide education, therapeutic services, and social activities for their children.
Over the years, this dedicated federation received invaluable support from volunteers and philanthropic individuals. A community-based approach was required, as the existing support systems for people with CP were inadequate, often resulting in isolation, exclusion, and very little choice. In stark contrast, these parents held a visionary perspective for their children – a future where the quality of life for all people with disabilities increased exponentially, where the principles of dignity and choice held utmost importance, and where a person’s ability no longer determine their life’s course.
