In collaboration with clinicians and social workers at Brigham and Women’s Hospital and Massachusetts General Hospital, the Stepping Strong Trauma Survivor Fund identifies patients facing significant recovery challenges and provides financial assistance to help meet their basic life needs.

Reimagining trauma care isn’t just about discovering innovative treatments for traumatic injuries—it’s about rebuilding lives. That’s the heart of what we do at the Stepping Strong Center.
