Programs & Services

Accessible service delivery in a caring and nurturing atmosphere

No two brain injuries are alike, just as no two people are alike. Each survivor will have goals that are meaningful to them and unique to their circumstances. This is why ARBI’s service model is highly successful.

Each individual receives a personalized program based on his or her specific goals. Then, our rehabilitation staff train volunteers to implement the program. ARBI’s Volunteer Leader carefully matches volunteers with clients. Volunteers receive intensive training and ongoing support from our team.

Our key program objectives are:

• To provide longer-term rehabilitation and promote community participation for persons with severe acquired brain injury (including stroke)
• To offer a client-centered approach
• To provide support and advocacy for individuals with brain injury and their families
• To share ARBI’s resources and expertise
• To engage volunteers in making life better for brain injury survivors. For over thirty years, we have dedicated ourselves to enriching the lives of survivors and their families
• We believe that every client and every family deserves to have hope for the future. Our expertise and experience has shown us that survivors can regain lost abilities, increase independence and reconnect with their communities. With appropriate rehabilitation, significant improvements can happen even years following an injury
• ARBI helps individuals achieve their dreams of re-engaging in the community and living fulfilling lives. Together, we help families rebuild a life after brain injury

“ARBI is more than rehab - it is a family…

The staff and volunteers at ARBI want the best for their clients and expect the best from them. Clients are motivated to work hard to better themselves and their quality of life. Rehabilitation at ARBI is not just about moving and thinking better and communicating more effectively, it is about clients learning and working in an environment where they feel safe and accepted for who they are.”
