Conquer Paralysis Now’s mission is to assist people affected by paralysis and other neurological conditions to help put them on the road to independence. We enable trailblazing spinal cord research and are an advocate of making the world aware of the need to conquer paralysis.
Since our founding in 2000 by Sam Schmidt, after a race-car accident that left him a quadriplegic, CPN has provided more than $18 million in grants to support cutting-edge research into finding a cure for paralysis.
DRIVEN NeuroRecovery Center, located in downtown Las Vegas, is a fitness and wellness center for people with disabilities and is a program of Conquer Paralysis Now. DRIVEN provides options for individuals to pursue a healthy, active lifestyle, through an activity-based approach. We serve people with all forms of neurological conditions and other disabilities.
