Survivor Support Groups
Survivor Support Groups are open to adults living with the effects of acquired brain injury. The purpose of our Support Groups is to provide survivors with the opportunity to share thoughts, experiences, concerns, interests and provide a platform to share feelings in a combined effort to better cope with and manage the complexity of living with ABI in a safe environment. Our goal is to provide survivors with peer support while increasing socialization and mitigating the feelings of isolation after ABI. Support Support Groups are held regularly on Monday’s, Wednesday’s and Thursday’s and on the last Tuesday of the month.
Tuesday 10:30am - 12:00pm
Wednesday 3:00pm - 3:30pm

“The Clubhouse is a place where we all get together. It gives us time to express ourselves. Whereas at home, there is no communication. When you come here, you can expand your mind. Everyone benefits in a different way. It’s a community, and a social setting in society where we can be together.” ”
“I frequent the HBIA Clubhouse...it is a warm and welcoming place with people who understand the challenges of this, most often, invisible and misunderstood condition...The people within, both facilitators and ABI friends...continue to help me through some very dark times. In an MVA...my life was changed forever. Still often feeling a victim, they help me work through it all and remind me that I am a survivor. Thank you to so many. ”
