Brain Injury Wildlife Rockstars on Recovery Now with Kim Justus

Wildlife Rockstars is a company uses wildlife and conservation outreach to help traumatic brain injury survivors thrive! Director of Wildlife Education, Tiffany Joubert will be my guest. The organization is a day program service where members come and create goals for themselves to help recover from their injuries; goals that help them reestablish functions they may have lost. Functions like cognitive abilities, motor skills, speaking, social skills, and more. Part of the program is the Wildlife Rockstars’ which is our wildlife program. We have over 32 species of animals. Some of which are used as animal therapy animals to help the members with their mental health. Other animals go with the staff and members to animal presentation shows, animals like our new baby Wallaby Springsteen! The members give presentations about the animals at schools, retirement communities even birthday parties. These presentations play a vital role in helping the members learn to reestablish social skills, public speaking skills as well as building confidence. For more see: bridgesforbraininjury.org & Wildlife Rockstars on FB! This show is a gathering place for anyone seeking recovery from the challenges of life on life's terms. We discuss useful tools that have helped us lighten the load, of our journey through recovery. This is a "we" recovery program, because it is in the "we," that we find the new "me." We focus on the four A's of Recovery: Awareness, Acceptance, Action and Adaptation. This is a place for survivor's striving to become thrivers, which takes a good bit of Warrior!
