Brooks Rehabilitation Hospital - Brooks Clubhouse

What is it?

Brooks Clubhouse is a full-time day program that provides for the long-term recovery needs of individuals who have suffered from an acquired neurological injury. The Clubhouse helps individuals regain social, physical, cognitive, and vocational abilities. Not only do members participate in activities, but they have the opportunity to manage Clubhouse operations, helping them re-establish themselves in the community and return to work.

Who is it for?

Any adult, age 16 or older, who would benefit from activities to enhance social, physical, cognitive, and vocational outcomes following an acquired brain injury (private pay and sliding-fee scale available).

Why do they do it?

The Brain Injury Association of America estimates that 95 percent of all people who experience a disability following brain injury fail to receive the long-term services and support needed.

Impact

Brooks Clubhouse currently has 50 active members. It opened with 12 members in October 2008 and has served more than 130 members, ages 17 to 80, since opening.
