Darlene S. Williamson, a speech pathologist with over 25 years of experience, recognized that survivors needed personalized communication services – particularly after medical insurance limits have been exhausted. In January 2005, Stroke Comeback Center (SCC) opened its doors as a community services organization for survivors living with aphasia and their families. The Center is now a nationally respected speech/language center practicing the Life Participation Approach to Aphasia. SCC services achieve clearly identifiable improvements in communication and quality of life for persons with aphasia.
