I find it odd that this site lists OHI as an independent/stand-alone option for cerebral palsy. OHI (Other Health Impairment) is a special education authorization that falls under IDEA, similar to Autism, Specific Learning Disability, Emotional Disturbance, etc. Therefore a student may receive special education (IEP services) because they meet the criteria for OHI. OHI is actually one of the IDEA/IEP categories, not a separate option for support. I hope that makes sense :-)
