Step Up for an Accessible World

STEPtember: Get moving. Win prizes. Do good.

Step Up to Advance Cerebral Palsy Research
and Disability Innovation

Connect with your friends, family, and colleagues to get moving this STEPtember. The fun starts on September 1!

STEPtember encourages participants of all fitness and ability levels to take 10,000 steps a day as part of teams of up to four, or as individuals. For each four-person team, that’s more than a million steps if everyone hits their daily goals — and they don’t have to be actual steps.

More than 80 wide-ranging activities convert to steps — from dancing to physical therapy to hiking to rolling in a wheelchair — and you can choose what works for you based on your interest and mobility.

Raise money by letting friends and family know about how much you’re moving, or take STEPtember on as a pure fundraising challenge if cerebral palsy means a lot to you but doing a ton of physical activity isn’t your thing.

Don’t want to wait until September 2026 to join the fun? Contact Kristie Hagen to see how you can step up sooner!

Step up with us this year!
