Mission Statement

To restore the quality of life that has been lost due to acquired brain injury such as stroke or traumatic brain injury. We help individuals relearn and improve thinking and communication skills needed to interact with others, live as independently as possible and return to active engagement within their community

Description

CCR was founded in 2014 due to a much-needed service that was lacking in our community. Stroke and TBI patients were not receiving the continual services needed to regain cognitive and communicative skills due to lack of funding. Most insurance covers a minimum number of rehabilitation visits and costs to continue therapy beyond insurance can be financially devastating to patients and their families. We created a unique and effective program providing low-cost short and long term rehabilitation services. We believe that rehabilitation has no time limit and have seen amazing cognitive and communicative improvement in the participants in our program. They are no longer isolated, learning to communicate once again, improving their memory, regaining problem solving skills, learning how to read and write once again and making friendships and creating a network of support. We provide goal-targeted sessions and classes daily and have a wonderful group of Certified Brain Injury Specialists, Cognitive Clinicians, therapeutic specialists and dedicated volunteers that make our program unique, special and effective.
