The Importance of Community in Rehabilitation & Recovery

Jim Scott tells his story about how he was severely brain injured in 2006 in his book "More Than a Speed Bump". I first heard Jim on Dr. Jen Blanchette's podcast, The TBI Therapist. On this podcast he talks about his rehab and recovery in Boston, his incredibly supportive family and about how he connected to a great group of people, even through his initial reluctance, at Krempels Center, a brain injury center in Portsmouth, New Hampshire. It was great to talk to someone who, even through very difficult times, has found a real reason to engage with his community and find happiness and positivity.PLEASE SHARE, LIKE AND SUBSCRIBE!
