This resource from the Nationwide Children’s Hospital website explains how to support and protect bone health in children with cerebral palsy.

Children with cerebral palsy (CP) who have limited ability to bear weight are at higher risk of developing fragile bones. This is because bones need regular activity — such as walking, running, and jumping — to stay strong.
