Please help Vision House by Donating

Vision House is a 501(C)(3), non-profit organization that provides cognitive, psychosocial, prevocational, and vocational rehabilitation services for adult survivors of Acquired Brain Injury. The program helps those who are left with nowhere to go once insurance coverage expires and patients are discharged from hospitals and private rehabilitation facilities. The program also supports and counsels family members of survivors of an acquired brain injury.

An acquired brain injury is an injury to the brain sustained after birth. This injury may be termed a traumatic brain injury (caused by external forces such as an automobile accident), or the injury may result from internal causes (stroke or anneurysm).

Mission

At least 80,000 American lives are altered by Acquired Brain Injury each year. Those who survive brain injury often find their lives dramatically changed and are no longer considered to be productive members of society. Jobs are not compatible with "new" abilities, friends vanish and family systems fall apart. Survivors experience new and different needs in a world with high expectations and little tolerance.

Vision House provides a different life space for these adults in which to grow, relate, and learn. Empowerment, relationship, and support drive the goals for each survivor to again become a productive member of society.

Vision House provides an individualized continuum of services so that each member (client) reaches his/her highest potential. Our day program emphasizes psychosocial and vocational skills. Respite, case management, community education, and family support groups are available. Long term goals include 24 hours of care if needed, and child services.
