“This program helped me accept my injury and cope with my feelings” -Michelle R.
Many of our consumers are funded through the New York State Department of Health Traumatic Brain Injury Waiver Program. Other funding depends on the type of service you require. You are welcome to consult with us about these issues without cost to you.

Come visit the Brain Food Cafe and enjoy some tasty food while supporting a good cause. The Brain Food Cafe is staffed by participants in the Brain Injury Services Program.

Participants are given opportunities to practice task-execution skills, money management skills, cooking skills, and socialization skills. Proceeds raised by the Brain Food Cafe go towards the Brain Injury Services Program.
I like coming here. It’s the only place I can come to talk about things freely. I learn things, make new friends and have contacts, and socialize . I am not closed in my own world. I have an outlet.
