Aphasia is a language disorder caused by an injury to portions of the brain, usually the result of stroke or other brain injury. Speaking, reading, writing and understanding speech may be affected to varying degrees. Living with aphasia can be a frustrating and isolating experience and the psychosocial consequences can be as devastating as the language loss itself. The MossRehab Aphasia Center was developed to meet the long-term communication and psychosocial needs of individuals who have been affected by aphasia. While most individuals with aphasia participate in an intensive speech and language therapy program immediately following an injury, speech and language problems generally persist. However, research has shown that with continued treatment many of these patients can continue to make significant gains in the years following the initial injury. For these individuals, the MossRehab Aphasia Center not only provides a specialized outpatient therapy program, it offers opportunities to participate in cutting-edge research, a computer lab, and an array of educational programs, activities and support groups, all designed to foster language recovery, conversational interactions, support, and life-long learning.
