Brain injuries can be very unpredictable in their consequences – they can affect who you are, the way you think, act, and feel in a matter of seconds. The Oswego TBI Support Group brings individuals affected by TBIs together to connect with and offer support to one another.
If you live in Oswego County and want to attend, the Support Group meeting will take place at the ARISE Oswego office located at 9 Fourth Ave in Oswego. Light refreshments will be served at 5:30 p.m. prior to the presentation. If you have any questions, contact Shannon Morrell at (315) 342-4088 x245 or Jennifer Torrese at (315) 342-4088 x224 or jtorrese@ariseinc.org.
