Connection Hour

We host a weekly virtual hangout exclusively for brain injury survivors. We provide the Zoom link and help spread the word, but this is not a support group, therapy session, or structured activity. There is no facilitator or staff-led discussion.

This time belongs to the survivors who attend. Think of it more like an online club or coffee chat, a relaxed space to socialize, build friendships, laugh, vent, share stories, or simply talk about whatever is on your mind.

Come as you are, stay for as long as you’d like, and enjoy some time with others who understand life after brain injury.

Meets Online Every Friday from Noon to 1:00pm

Requirements:

  • Must be at least 18 years of age
  • Must be living with a brain injury

Interested? Let us know. You will receive the zoom link after you fill out the interest form.
