CPA Ontario

Welcome to the Spinal Cord Connections website!

Canadian Paraplegic Association (CPA) Ontario is proud to be a partner with Toronto Rehab in the Spinal Cord Connections website project. We believe that our collective expertise in spinal cord injury will make Spinal Cord Connections a hub of knowledge – getting the right information to the right people at the right time. Our two organizations are willing and eager to work together to bring you the information you need.

We extend an invitation. We encourage you help us make Spinal Cord Connections a place where you share what you know. We want to hear about your experiences, stories and resources. Your input will make this website rich for all its users. There is relatively so little information on spinal cord injury that all contributions are significant. So leave your comments, post your messages and attend our upcoming online events. We want to hear from you!

CPA Ontario’s mission is to assist persons with spinal cord injuries (SCI) and other physical disabilities to achieve independence, self-reliance and full community participation. We do this by providing consistent, holistic, individualized and quality-assured services during every step of recovery. Our core programs and services include peer support, community services, employment services (in the Greater Toronto Area), advocacy, information services, membership and attendant services (in the Greater Toronto Area).

Our members include individuals with SCI and other physical disabilities, their families and friends as well as members of the public looking for a place to turn for awareness, education and a sense of community. CPA Ontario has offices across the province and is also part of a national network.

We hope you find the site useful and encourage you to look around and visit often as it is updated on a regular basis.
