Shop for Good: QLI

QLI helps survivors of devastating brain and spinal cord injuries get back to life. The population QLI serves, primarily individuals between the ages of 16 and 65, is as diverse as its diagnoses are complex. QLI devotes tremendous resources to providing treatment beyond the client to the entire family unit - resources that include on-campus housing, 24/7 access to counseling and education services, and transition planning to foster both a successful return home and positive long-term outcomes.
