What We Do
Powered By Human Spirit™ focuses on empowering and memorializing trauma survivors, thrivers and difference makers who are reinventing themselves following life-altering traumas. These individuals have endured unimaginable life-altering traumas, such as accidents, injuries, diseases, or medical phenomena, and are working with rehabilitation, specialists, artists, athletes to rebuild their lives.
The Power of the Human Spirit™ program was created to amplify and empower your recovery, rehabilitation and reinvention purposes.
Relearning essential skills, like thinking, speaking, sitting, standing, walking, rolling or adapting to prosthetics and re-learning how to communicate through words, no words or sign language, requires immense focus, discipline, mental and physical strength x resilience.
These survivors must navigate their transformed selves with kindness, self-acceptance, and confidence, supported by their families and communities. Healing through adaptive art, athletics, sound, and wonder plays a key role in this quality of rehabilitative process; fostering physical, emotional and mental recovery in ways that words alone cannot convey. Through this project, we aim to capture the profound, often indescribable transformations that occur as humans and organizations unite to assist survivors, thrivers and difference makers in their rehab journey at the California Rehabilitation Institute.
