Spinal Cord Injury Alberta (formerly Canadian Paraplegic Association (Alberta))

Our Mission

Since 1961, the Canadian Paraplegic Association (Alberta) has been helping Albertans with spinal cord injuries (SCI) and other physical disabilities. We are a leader in offering support, direct service, information and advocacy to people impacted by the life changing event of SCI. We have four core areas: Rehabilitation Services that includes First Nations and Métis Services and Consulting and Vocational Rehabilitation services, Information Services, Community Development and Advocacy, Peer Support and Volunteer Services.Whether it be assisting a newly spinal cord injured child or adult, or lobbying for better public transportation, or helping to create a more inclusive community, CPA (Alberta) embraces the approach that there is, "more than one way".
