United Spinal Association
United
Spinal Association is a 501(c)(3) national disability rights and veterans service organization founded in 1946, providing
service to thousands of members across the United States. The mission of United Spinal Association is to provide expertise,
create access to resources and strengthen hope, thereby enabling people with spinal cord injuries and disorders (SCI/D) to
fulfill their potential as active members of their communities. For over 60 years we have fought for equal opportunity; we’ve
funded hundreds of important research initiatives; we’ve mastered the frustrating tangles of applying for benefits programs
at the state and federal level; designed and built accessible facilities in both the public and private sectors and shared
our expertise with thousands of architects and designers; we’ve written historic federal legislation expanding the scope
of civil rights; repaired, maintained, sold, and donated thousands of wheelchairs and other adaptive equipment; created and
nurtured wheelchair sports teams and forged alliances with numerous professional franchises.
