Concussion recovery is different for everyone.

Researchers at Western University are seeking to learn about how young people (aged 16-23) think and feel about their experiences of concussion recovery. This study uses a group storytelling model to engage Ontario youth with a history of concussion.

• Do you have a story to tell about life after concussion?

• Do you have an interest in digital content creation?
