Side by Side Brain Injury Clubhouse advances the long-term well-being of people with brain injury-related disabilities and their families through skills development, support, and advocacy.When brain-injured patients come home from the hospital, they face a big unknown. They ask, "Now that I've left the hospital, will I need non-stop care from my family? Will I be able to work again? Will I have friends, colleagues, and live a productive life?" Adding to these challenges, family members also face a life-long physical, financial, and emotional ordeal. Side by Side answers these unknowns for hundreds of people in Georgia's brain injury community. The Clubhouse Day Program:Side by Side offers the only resource of its kind in the state of Georgia. The program functions as a "clubhouse" where members travel up to two hours each way to be part of a supportive community and work "side by side" with volunteers and staff to run the program. Side by Side offers members a safeenvironment for continuation of recovery, mastery of skills, and return to the workforce, all while making a positive impact on their families and caregivers.
