Community Living Connection (CLiC)
Challenges Entered:
CLiC will provide computer and assistive technology and internet connection free of charge to those participating in the pilot program. After initial evaluation, services will be opened to a wider group and based on fundraising addtional participants will be added as possible. Other Brain Injury Services of SWVA services are currently either free (case management)Â or on a sliding scale bases (life skills training). Through this project we hope to be able to offer those services to more individuals
What else have you done in this area of work?
The Jason Foundation was formed to hlep people with brain injuries and their families. In doing this, we have funded the establishment of Brain Injury Services of SWVA that aid brain injury survivors in the Southwest Virginia area. In conjunction with Brain Injury Services, and others, we are continuing to look for ways to help those with brain injuries. Our hope with this project is to be able to not only help those in rural areas of Southwest Virginia, but in other rural areas of the world as well.
We feel this project will have possibilities for many other groups as well.
