Our Mission
The mission of the Kentucky Congress on Spinal Cord Injury (KCSCI) is to gather individuals with spinal cord injuries (SCI) and paralysis from around the commonwealth to join in the discussion of ethical issues and to advocate for changes in our commonwealth for people with paralysis.
KCSCI strives to create a culture where consumers become strong advocates for the rights of all people with disabilities and are willing agents who provide peer mentoring to the SCI community.
“We’re going to develop leadership, that has a fundamental difference. That is, it’s inclusive. It believes in people, and in our strengths together. And we are going to change our society.“
-From the heart of the independent living movement
and its founder Ed Roberts
Projected Outcomes
• Continue to increase collaboration between SCI advocates and the community
• Develop an agenda to be used to legislate
• Current Platforms: TBA
• Develop leaders with significant disabilities to be the leaders in the community.
• Foster an environment where participants, sponsors, health care providers and caregivers all exchange information about programs available to those in need statewide.
Join Us for the 6th Annual KCSCI Conference
Conference attendees can expect complimentary breakfast and lunch during the event, as well as refreshments throughout the day. There will be a vendor area for you to view new products, technologies, services, and demonstrations before, during, and after event speakers and breakouts. Attendees will also be given the opportunity to meet new people and engage in the discussion that is critical to the SCI world and the disability community as a whole.
All of this and more is completely free to you as an attendee. We hope that this gift is as meaningful to you as it has been to those of us who have benefited from the work and support of the Kentucky Congress on Spinal Cord Injury.
