Past Forums
Duct Tape and Beyond
Thank you to all of those who braved the stormy weather and attended this outstanding forum on March 9th, 2016. Curt Johnson, MS, CRC, ATP gave a stellar presentation on assistive technology that ranged from the latest technological advances to “low tech” or “no tech” solutions. Curt gave specific attention to the cheaper, less-techie solutions one might come up with using items from a hardware store or around their house. We published a write up of the forum in our April 2016 newsletter.
Recreation and TBI
Thank you to all for joining us at our forum on October 21st, 2015 entitled “Recreation and TBI” with our guest panel of experts. We learned about ways people have returned to their favorite recreational activities after their injuries, or were inspired to find new ones.
