Details

• Description:
  (CDC) estimates that about 1 in every 323 children in the United States (US) has been identified with cerebral palsy (CP). CDC’s estimate comes from the Autism and Developmental Disabilities Monitoring (ADDM) Network, which tracks the number and characteristics of 8-year-old children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and other developmental disabilities in diverse communities throughout the US. In 2008, there were 14 ADDM Network sites tracking ASD, and four of those sites also tracked CP. These four sites, which include areas in Alabama, Georgia, Missouri, and Wisconsin, are referred to as the ADDM CP Network. ; This is the first Community Report from the ADDM CP Network. The purpose of this Community Report is to highlight the ADDM CP Network’s most recent findings in a way that is useful for parents, providers, and policymakers and to provide health information for awareness and action. ; Community-Report_v10.pdf
