Alternative Opportunities, Inc., assists support group in West Plains, Missouri (SoMoTBI)

It has taken some time, but we are finally getting a handle on starting the Southern Missouri TBI Support Group (SoMoTBI). This blog (http://somotbi.blogspot.com) shall serve as the initial (and primary) method of communication to reach out to those who (like myself) are interested in getting together (in the Southern^† Region of Missouri) with others in a supportive environment.

Thanks to Eileen Deaver (Head Injury Service Coordinator of the Missouri Rehab Center) for the inspiration to start this effort and to Tara Weaver (of the West Plains office of Alternative Opportunities, Inc.) for assisting our efforts to launch the group. Special personal thanks to Gwen Jackson (West Plains office of Vocational Rehab) for keeping me focused on details and for providing the support necessary to re-train my outlook.

As development proceeds, we will keep you informed right here. Thank you for your interest in our group and for your interest in helping those of us who struggle with restoring our lives after trauma.

Sincerely,
Chris "Geeko" McIntosh
