About this conference

For cerebral palsy (CP) access to early interventions is critical for development. Our project aims to support clinicians in using evidence-informed early interventions. By developing a multifaceted knowledge translation strategy, we aim to effectively implement, evaluate, and sustain change in clinical practice that supports CP early intervention across Canada.

The purpose of this webinar is to offer an in-depth exploration of a multi-component knowledge translation strategy. We aim to empower rehabilitation professionals by offering a comprehensive orientation to the Early Intervention section of the Early Detection and Interventions Toolkit for CP through a training program and site champions. We hope to equip therapists with the skills needed to effectively navigate the toolkit and guide their decision-making in integrating evidence-based strategies into their therapeutic practices
