The Ventures Program is a comprehensive outpatient approach to improving the
social, thinking, physical, vocational and community skills of adults with
brain injuries. The program uses a group therapy model shown to be effective
in reintroducing family members with brain injuries back to the home, community
and work.
After a comprehensive evaluation, St. Rita's Ventures Team will build a treatment
plan with you and your family. Based upon the evaluation, you may participate
in Ventures three days a week, five to six hours a day for six weeks. Your
program may vary based upon your needs.

To accomplish these goals you will participate in group activities at our Easy
Street Environment as well as go on community
outings to promote adjustment to changing social environments.
Your team is composed of speech & language, physical, occupational and
recreational therapists as well as a neuropsychologist, vocational counselor
and a social worker/case manager and most importantly you, your family and
your doctor. Your teammates are all specialists in providing care for persons
who have experienced head injuries.
If you or a family member has experienced a head injury, which continues to
interfere with family, social, school or work activities, speak with your physician
to see if the Ventures Program is right for you and your family.
