Monthly on the third Thursday at 6:30 pm: The Young and Restless in Atlanta Young (at heart) Stroke/TBI Peer Engagement Group. Click below to join:
We are the Young and the Restless of Atlanta, and we know age is only a number.
We welcome the Survivor - the person that has experienced a Traumatic situation and lived, the Caregiver - the person responsible for the care of a survivor, Clinicians - those that have dedicated their life, for the study and use of techniques to prevent or deal with life afterward, and of course, the Ally - the person that has no direct relation to the situation or no family members impacted, but still wants to the help and has a heart for the Stroke/TBI communities at large.
Research has shown that one of the risk factors for a difficult recovery after a stroke is social isolation. Humans are social animals; we need plenty of contact and connection with one another to thrive. But for stroke survivors who may have a wide range of disabilities, social contact can be difficult—even when your family is helping.
That is why this support group exists.
