Stroke Association of Victoria Inc.

As the only dedicated community-based support service for stroke survivors- people with acquired brain injuries (ABIs) and their carers- loved ones & families- we aim to bridge the gap from when they leave clinical care- return home- face challenges of transitioning back into community & workplaces- challenges adapting to their new role as Carers- and seek to establish the “new norm”.
