Objective. To relate functional performance and quality of family life in children and adolescents with cerebral palsy from the Instituto Nacional de Salud del Niño during 2021. Materials and methods. A retrospective analytical study that analyzed 80 children and adolescents between 2 and 18 years old with cerebral palsy, in a non-probabilistic way, who attended the Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation Service for outpatient consultation. The Pediatric Evaluation of Disability Inventory and the Beach Center Family Quality of Life Scale adapted to Latin America were applied. Results. There were 56% males and a median age of 7 (3-9). The most frequent diagnoses were spastic hemiparesis (32%) and spastic quadriparesis (31%). Slight correlations were observed between functional performance and satisfaction with support for people with disabilities (rho = 0.25; p = 0.026). At the same time, self-care (rho = 0.26; p = 0.022) and social performance (rho = 0.26; p = 0.021) were associated with satisfaction with support for people with disabilities. Conclusion. Functional performance was associated with quality of life domains such as satisfaction with health and safety and support for people with disabilities.
