Roadmap to Recovery
Easing the journey
Welcome to your Roadmap to Recovery! We invite you to review the online version of this new guide for people who are newly injured and their families. We are grateful to the Ontario Trillium Foundation for their generous funding of this publication and to author Julie Sawchuk for her extraordinary skills and commitment to the well-being of her peers.
We also appreciate our community members with SCI, their supportive families and our health care partners for sharing what they know to ease the journey and strengthen the outcome of those who find their way to these pages. Click on titles below to read our online version in chapter PDFs.
“Roadmap to Recovery is a well-researched, much-needed resource. Wouldn’t it be wonderful if all new SCI patients could find this resource, so they wouldn’t feel so isolated in their experience of their injury and the system navigation required for a meaningful, best-possible recovery. I hope this resource gets into all of the right hands.”
