$6000 will provide one year of paid internship for a veteran with brain injury or stroke.
The Clubhouse provides paid internships for veterans to assist them in transitioning from therapy into competitive employment. Because of their brain injuries, special accommodations need to be addressed for memory deficits, migraines, issues with organization and PTSD. We assist the veterans in using these techniques and compensatory devices within the job setting.
Sponsors will have their company name, logo and link placed on our website and in our donor newsletter that is mailed out primarily to donors and healthcare professionals. A veteran in the program will be available to the company for press conferences or community events. A press release will be sent out.
$1500 will provide 3 months of rehabilitative services at the Clubhouse to a veteran or person with brain injury or stroke.
