2008 Believable Hope Conference

Top

THIS IS YOUR CHANCE to create real HOPE during the Believable Hope Conference, sponsored by United Cerebral Palsy, June 18-21, 2008 in our nation’s capital.

Members of the Disability Community; Business & Community Leaders; Healthcare Professionals; and Families will join forces with UCP to create Believable Hope today for a Life Without Limits for people with disabilities in the future.

Life Without Limits

Top

The Believable Hope Conference is the next step in the Life Without Limits initiative, focusing on discussions of the future of children with disabilities, healthcare, and the full integration of people with disabilities in our society.

Life Without Limits is a national effort to create a new vision of the future for people with disabilities. The project is designed to raise public awareness about the serious challenges that remain for people with disabilities and develop strategies, initiatives, programs, and public policy to address them.

While UCP is the spark, Life Without Limits is too large for any one organization to own. Success will come with the participation and support of a broad coalition of individuals, groups, and organizations. Together, we will create a fresh strategic view of our nation and the possibilities tomorrow holds and realize a more just and sustainable future for all Americans with and without disabilities.

Life Without Limits will unite visionary individuals and organizations to create a brighter future for the disability community.
