Survive Strive Thrive began in 2014 with the idea that there is power in sharing stories. What started with four survivors speaking to a small group quickly revealed the profound healing and hope storytelling can inspire. Since 2015, in partnership with the University of Victoria, this free, one-day annual conference has grown to welcome brain injury survivors, families, healthcare professionals, students, and community members. The event focuses on lived experiences, best practices, and emerging research to foster awareness, improve services, and support reintegration after brain injury.
