Registration for each weekly event begins each Sunday and ends Wednesday at noon. You can register your child either by phone or website. Please note that most programs fill quickly - so register ASAP! If you do not receive a confirmation message by Thursday at noon, please call the Cerebral Palsy of New Jersey office to inquire about your registration.

Once registration is confirmed, please call the office if your child cannot attend and we will try to fill the spot with someone who may be on the wait list. Please note that "no shows" (or late cancellations) may be held responsible for ticketed events if the space cannot be filled.

All children must eat dinner before arriving at program unless otherwise specified. Also, do not bring any personal items and/or toys that may get lost or broken. Please send a beverage and a PEANUT and TREE NUT FREE SNACK for your child unless PNO is providing refreshments.

Cerebral Palsy of New Jersey has a hands-off behavior management philosophy therefore no participants will be physically restrained. Positive behavior support is provided as much as possible.
