History
In 1986, the St. Louis Chapter of the National Head Injury Foundation created the first community-based day program for adults with head injuries. At the time, no care or therapy options existed for survivors, and most people would spend their days at home, alone, with nothing to do. This small program grew and now offers a variety of specialized services known as The Center for Head Injury Services.
The current executive director of The Center for Head Injury Services is Donna Gunning.
