Abstract
A day program is a comprehensive set of therapeutic interventions provided to a brain-injury survivor who resides in a permanent (i.e., nontransitional) community setting—at home with his or her family, in an apartment, or in a group living arrangement. A day program has benefits for the survivor’s caregivers (e.g., the family) as well: By providing additional resources to meet some of the survivor’s needs, it reduces his or her dependence on the family.
