About UNITE 2 FIGHT PARALYSIS

Unite 2 Fight Paralysis (U2FP) is a donor-facing 501(c)(3) based in Minneapolis that focuses on advocacy, public education, and funding support to accelerate treatments and functional recovery for people living with spinal cord injury. The organization convenes researchers, clinicians, people with spinal cord injuries, and policymakers through an annual Science & Advocacy Symposium, a Cure Advocacy Network, and a podcast platform to translate research into real-world progress.

In the last 2–3 years U2FP has remained active on national legislative advocacy (including campaigns to restore and expand SCI research funding), produced its annual symposium (including its 2024 meeting), maintained an ongoing CureCast podcast with a large listener base, and published an annual report documenting program activity and financial results.
