We are looking for volunteers to help plan a half day training and support for families and caregivers of those with stroke or brain injury. We want this boot camp to have a wellness theme associated with it. The location is the Hyatt Lodge in Oak Brook and is scheduled for Sept 19th. Committee members will need to meet 3-4 times prior to plan the event. Meetings are held at our facility in Elmhurst and may also be done via conference call.
