Greater Kansas City Spinal Cord Injury Association

Greater Kansas City Spinal Cord Injury Association (GKCSCIA)

Our Mission

The mission of the Greater Kansas City Spinal Cord Injury Association is to provide local resources, services and peer support to individuals with spinal cord injury/disease, their families and professionals. The chapter will assist individuals with the unique difficulties encountered when residing in a bi-state city when searching for information, education and assistance. The chapter will offer the same support to individuals residing in the area but outside the city.

About Us:

The Greater Kansas City Spinal Cord Injury Association (GKCSCIA) is a united effort of passionate individuals committed to creating services and programs to ensure high quality lives after spinal cord injury or disease (SCI/D).  GKCSCIA is a non-profit 501©3 organization, run entirely by volunteers. We are a chapter of United Spinal Association.

GKCSCIA supports many adaptive sports in the KC area. We are the primary sponsor for the Mid-West Ability Summit.
