A global crisis like coronavirus can cause stress for all of us. For people living with brain injury, this crisis can exacerbate challenges they already face. Social distancing can increase feelings of loneliness; result in a backslide of abilities due to lack of stimulation; add stress to relationships; and, increase the need for support.
It's more important than ever that services continue to be available to support the health and well-being of those in our community living with brain injury. That's why we've adapted most of our rehabilitative and supportive services to be offered remotely during shelter-in-place. And, we need your help!

You Help Change the Future of Concussion Treatment
It was once believed that people who sustained a Concussion would typically recover fully in a few months. Research now shows over 50% of people who sustain even just one Concussion may experience significant long-term effects for a year or longer. Thanks to your support, adults living with the effects of a Concussion are helped by innovative services not available anywhere else in our area; services that are gaining recognition as a model program.
