HeadNorth enhances the quality of life for people faced with daily challenges of a spinal cord injury by providing resources, peer support and financial assistance.
Since our inception, HeadNorth has provided resources and essential help to hundreds of SCI survivors.
In 2009, financial assistance alone helped 46 SCI survivors in San Diego by providing specialized grants totaling more than $110,000.
With the help of HeadNorth I have been able to continue with my physical training which has helped me become stronger physically and mentally and has helped me continue progressing in my recovery.

Thanks to HeadNorth, I could modify my new home so I could get around. Without HeadNorth, I would not have had the means to make these modifications.

Just the realization that I would once again know the awesome freedom of driving again, I can't put into words all the emotions I felt
