Exploring social participants in young adults with cerebral palsy.

CONCLUSION: In this study young adults with cerebral palsy to a high extent lived in the parental home, and more often without employment, compared with their peers. Many were dependent on parental support, financially, and with activities of daily living. Intellectual disability and communication function were important determinants of social participation. Interventions aimed at alleviating the impact of these particular disabilities should be prioritized. PMID: 30815703 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
