The primary purpose of this list is to provide a forum for quadriplegics (tetraplegics) to communicate with others who share the same condition. This is not strictly a SCI forum. It is a forum for anyone who suffers a partial or full loss of function all 4 extremities of the body, i.e. a quad due to any reason not just from a SCI. It is most often caused by an SCI but not always. Anyone is welcome to join.
