Stroke Onward

Stroke Onward's mission is to ensure stroke survivors and their supporters have the resources needed to rebuild identities and rewarding lives. 

After a medical trauma like stroke, survival is job one. Job two is working to regain as many and as much of former capabilities as possible. But there is another less visible and sometimes even more challenging aspect of recovery — the emotional journey to rebuild identities and rewarding lives. Stroke Onward hopes to help create a stroke care system that focuses on the whole person – one where survivors and families are just as supported on their emotional journey in recovery as they are on the also critical journey of physical health and rehabilitation.
