The Christopher and Dana Reeve Foundation is dedicated to curing spinal cord injury by advancing innovative research and improving the quality of life for individuals and families impacted by paralysis.

Co-founded by Christopher and Dana Reeve as they struggled to find resources to help their family find a new normalcy after his spinal cord injury, they created the National Paralysis Resource Center to focus on the day-to-day challenges of living an independent and fulfilling life. Today, the NPRC is the support side of the Reeve Foundation’s twin missions to provide “Today’s Care” and to strive for “Tomorrow’s Cure.” 

They are a free, comprehensive, national source of informational support for people living with paralysis and their caregivers. There primary goals are to foster involvement in the community, promote health and improve quality of life.
