"WOW. This experience has been a great gift - new confidence, hope and friends." - Participant - stroke survivor "We (my sister, my father and I) have all learned so much from the S-LP's, the students and the other participants. InteRACT feels more like a supportive family environment rather than just a therapy program... all of you have helped us to remain positive and hopeful about the future." - Daughter of participant with aphasia "The difference is totally amazing. To think that 2 months ago we could barely communicate with each other. New communication skills & confidence are wild!" - Mother in law of participant with aphasia "Could see progress develop within the first few days and continued throughout the entire duration. It was a wonderful thing." - Friend of participant with aphasia "She certainly benefited from attending the program. She has been given an opportunity to see what improvements she can make if she applies herself. Numerous tools and approaches have been given to her so she is now in the driver's seat of her recovery." - Sister of participant with aphasia "She is more confident in her speech and trying to communicate with others. The fact that she can read and write a little is so exciting to her!" - Husband of participant with aphasia I would recommend the program... "Yes. You folks work very hard and produce results." - Friend of participant with aphasia "Unbelievable experience for both of us. The future seems a little more promising due to the education and skills we have picked up. We cannot say enough positive things about the staff, students and planning of the program. Bravo!" - Husband of participant with aphasia "The InteRACT program experience was Tremendous." - Sister of participant with aphasia "You guys are amazing. What you managed to do for her in four weeks is far more then what I expected. Having her smile and laugh again is worth any price." - Sister of participant with aphasia "...What you have done in four weeks would take months if not years in public rehab." - Sister of participant with aphasia "She has improved in all areas. In particular, I have noticed that she is speaking more, initiating conversations more with other people. Her sentences are longer and I think her confidence has increased." - Mother of participant with aphasia Do you think your partner's abilities have improved?... "Yes. In every area: increased reading speed and comprehension, improved keyboarding skills, improved writing, improved ability to manipulate numbers, improved confidence and self-esteem, improved ability to think abstractly" - Husband of participant with aphasia Do you think your partner's abilities have improved?... "Yes. By 2 weeks, he had made more progress than 10 + months of therapy at home. Not that what he had at home was bad - but the "9-5" therapy made a difference." - Wife of participant with aphasia
