We invite you to participate in our expert discussion group aimed at supporting children recovering from traumatic brain injuries (TBI), stroke, and concussion. This group will address key topics, including resources for parents, the impact of TBI on family life, and coping strategies for those navigating this journey.

Examples of topics discussed in past sessions include:

Diagnostic labels, what they mean and how to leverage them

Community-based resources (e.g., SSI/SSDI, therapies)

Navigating the world of subspecialists and getting the most out of your appointments

Characterizing symptoms 

School based supports
