On 11/17/08 I accepted a position with United Cerebral Palsy as Administrator of our Conductive Education School here in Arkansas. My son, who has worked with me for the last several years plans to continue to make available most of the “mainstay items”. He’ll begin taking orders sometime after the first of the new year. I will post a link to his yet undeveloped web page when he gets ready to resume producing the CE items. In the meantime, I plan to continue to making this site available for reference sake as well as answer inquires as they may be posed.

I have spent a good deal of my adult years as a journeyman woodworker making trendy things for retail businesses that would soon be unappreciated and/or cast off when the next trend appeared. Growing older seems to awaken awareness and a desire to spend ones remaining years in a way that would bring help and hope to others. I was at that place in my life when I was introduced to Conductive Education.  A woman at our church (Leslie Porter) asked me if I would be interested in making some furniture items for a school she hoped to start up for children with CP/motor challenges. Out from that grew the first conductive education school in Arkansas.

Over the last 4 ½ years some of the things we have tried have worked and some have not. The items that we have put up on this site are those that are the ‘necessities” of Conductive Education. However, our delight is to be made aware of special individual needs that require ingenuity and invention that another might reach out and further grasp their potential. THAT is value!  THAT is purpose! 

Our hope is to offer affordable, quality, “abuse resistant” furniture that will serve to help those seeking further independence. - Bruce Burow, Owner
