About Us

About Stroke Comeback Center

Founded in 2005, Stroke Comeback Center is a community of survivors of stroke and other brain trauma committed to living successful and productive lives. Our non-profit organization offers support along the slow road to better. Our members, professionals, volunteers, and families know that recovery continues forever. We are the only organization of this kind in the greater Washington, DC area.

Help Survivors Thrive

Your support of Thriving with Aphasia allows Stroke Comeback Center to provide meaningful programs to stroke and brain trauma survivors throughout their recoveries at rates that are affordable for all families. This includes our THRIVE Program of virtual and in-person fitness, yoga, art, and music classes designed to help our survivors live full and active lives. Most importantly, your generosity ensures that we can stay true to our mission of never turning away a survivor for financial reasons.
