In April of 1985 a small group of concrned parents met, all equally frustrated by the lack of services available for their children. The immediate concern was the lack of therapy, as case loads at the Children's Rehabilitation Centre were extremely high. They felt their children deserved a higher standard of treatment, so that they might achieve their fullest potential. They defined their immediate goals as they need for input into decisions that would effect their children's future. It was at this meeting, that the Saskatoon, Cerebral Palsy Association was formed, and defined their overall objective in a mission statement:

"To ensure individuals with cerebral palsy the right to appropriate opportunities to achieve their fullest potential through education, health, care and access to all amenities of the community."

From this small core group the Association organized and expanded, and today has a growing membership of families and individuals including parents, adults with CP, therapists, mediacal professionals, teachers and interested persons. For the first few years the Association's business and affairs were handled by private members in their homes. Fundraising was extremely difficult and members worked very hard at bake sales and raffles. In 1986 the Association held their fist workshop/seminar which was huge success, and further realized the needs of person with cerebral palsy and their families. In 1987 they changed their name to The Saskatchewan Cerebral Palsy Association. In the same year they joined and became a member of the Canadian Cerebral Palsy Association. In 1989 an office was opened in Saskatoon which was run by volunteers. It was extremely difficult to keep up the pace, and a full time Provincial Coordinatior, Heather Ramussen, was hired to the fall of 1989.

Since then the SCPA has hosted other successful workshops, in Saskatoon and Regina; and several programs have been initiated.
