Dear Friends and Community Partners,
Since 1947, the Cerebral Palsy Association of Colorado Springs (CPACS) has proudly served individuals with disabilities and their families through compassion, advocacy, and community connection. Together, we have built a legacy of inclusion and support that has truly made a difference in our community.
As we approach the end of this year, our Board of Directors is carefully evaluating the future of CPACS.
Despite our tireless efforts to sustain operations, the challenges of recent years have been difficult to overcome.
Like many nonprofits, we have faced challenges that make continuing difficult. However, we still have hope that someone with passion and dedication will step forward to carry this mission into the future. We believe there may be someone out there with the vision and heart to continue this important work — and to lead CPACS into a new chapter of service and hope.
As our Executive Director is retiring, we are seeking a new Executive Director / Client Services Representative — a passionate and visionary leader dedicated to empowering individuals with disabilities. The ideal candidate will be ready to take on the challenge of revitalizing a long-standing, once-successful nonprofit that is currently facing financial difficulties. This individual should be willing to dedicate volunteer time, with limited compensation to start, to help rebuild the organization and guide it toward renewed success. They will posses creativity, compassion, and strong skills in client relations, marketing, fundraising, grant writing, event coordination, and strategic planning to help guide the organization. They will also have an unwavering commitment to the disabled community.
Position: $20/hour, 20 hours per week
Apply by: November 14, 2025

If the position is not filled, the Board has made the difficult decision to close the organization at the end of this year.
Thank you for being part of our CPACS family and for helping us makes a difference for so many through the years.
With heartfelt gratitude and hope,
The Board of Directors
Cerebral Palsy Association of Colorado o Springs
We strive to build a community within the Colorado Springs area that is understanding, educated, and generous to those living with CP. One of the ways we try to do that is through our Financial Assistance program!
Most individuals with cerebral palsy require adaptive medical equipment to help with their mobility and independence. We offer two equipment-related services for those with a cerebral palsy diagnosis: financial assistance for equipment purchases and equipment loans through our lending closet.
Financial assistance from CPACS can be used for almost any expense related to a CP diagnosis, including equipment needs. Visit our financial assistance page for more information and to fill out an allocation request form.
Our equipment lending closet is filled with donated equipment that we lend out to individuals and their families free of charge. These loans can be short-term or long-term depending on your unique situation and needs. Click on the photos below to browse out current equipment offerings.
Our mission is to provide individuals with neuromotor disorders, like cerebral palsy, with equal opportunity and greater access to necessary services. We want to promote inclusivity through raising public awareness about CP and empower individuals with cerebral palsy to meet their personal goals. We want to be there for families in their time of need and provide them with financial, emotional, and community support.
The Cerebral Palsy Association of Colorado Springs operates because of our generous volunteers and board members. Contact us today to become a Board Member or Volunteer.
Like most non-profits, CPACS is dependent on community support to continue its work in the special needs community. If you are interested in donating financially to CPACS or adding to our equipment lending closet, visit the donate page. You will find more information about how we use donations and instructions for giving online.
We also need community partners to help host and participate in our fundraisers. If you are interested in supporting CPACS in this way, visit the events page to view upcoming fundraisers or reach out to us directly to become an event sponsor.
