United Cerebral Palsy builds ramps and coordinates statewide construction of wheelchair ramps for individuals with mobility disabilities whose homes are without proper accessibility
About this Program
Working in conjunction with collaborating agencies and volunteers, United Cerebral Palsy spearheads the construction wheelchair ramps on to the homes of people with disabilities across the state of Tennessee. Lumber and supplies for the program are funded through a grant from the Tennessee Housing Development Agency (THDA). Since the initiation of the collaboration, more than 2,000 wheelchair ramps have been constructed.
The program serves Tennesseans with any disability that results in mobility impairment and the need for a wheelchair ramp.
