Parents and legal guardians of a child with cerebral palsy sometimes ask:
How did this happen to my child?
Was my child’s cerebral palsy preventable?
Who will pay for all of my child’s medical and therapy expenses?
Is my child eligible for compensation? Lifetime Benefits? Government assistance, or more?
Who will take care of my child if something should ever happen to me? Is my child’s care, financial stability and my preferences planned for in the event of an emergency?

— About Advocacy —
Not every case of cerebral palsy can be explained by an avoidable medical mistake, leaving many children with special needs without recourse through the legal system, but still in need of assistance. Ken believes that every family of a child with cerebral palsy – whether they contract for legal services with his firm, or not - deserves access to available information, resources, support and inspiration. He believes knowledge and connectivity empower parents in their quest to care for their child, enabling children with cerebral palsy to achieve to their fullest potential.
Although Ken Stern is an attorney, he is also a parent advocate with a vision to create online communities where individuals touched by cerebral palsy can freely associate, connect and support one another. There, information and resources are easily accessible, night and day. His dream became a reality when he founded MyChild™ in 1997 and launched the original MyChild™ flagship website at http://cerebralpalsy.org/. In 2006, Ken Stern opened a call center that has since assisted over 40,000 individuals touched by cerebral palsy. In 2012, he launched his MyChild™ Facebook page.
