Since 2017, the WAGS of SCI founders Brooke and Elena have been passionate about providing insight and perspective into the world of caregiving and disabilities in order to facilitate change.
The importance of caregiver education in the world of disability is extremely important, because most studies, programs and information available is outdated, and sometimes fails to even consider caregivers rights or needs. This can make our niche community members feel isolated and unheard.
The WAGS of SCI are committed to changing perceptions, breaking barriers, and promoting mental, physical and emotional wellness in the disability and caregiving communities worldwide. We have a unique, powerful but under-utilized voice in the community that needs to be recognized and heard.
Brooke and Elena have extensive experience presenting to groups large and small, as well as consulting on various disability/caregiver projects. They are available for:
- Speaking engagements
- Consulting on research publications
- Corporate consulting for disability/caregiver inclusion and awareness in the workplace
- Research guidance and facilitation for quantitative/qualitative scientific studies
- Panel discussion contributors for awareness events
- Inclusion in the classroom: interactive presentations about disability, caregiving, and the "inter-abled" lifestyle for school programs
- Policy guidance and advocacy
Scientific Studies + Research Publications
Brooke and Elena currently are consultants/co-chairs on various scientific studies about the needs and wellbeing of caregivers. They are currently panelists and contributing consultants in studies aimed at providing caregiver wellness programs and resources in hospitals and rehabilitation centres in both Canada and the United States. Their expertise will be used in designing evidence based online tools that caregivers will be able to use to help them find balance and guidance after their partners sustain a spinal injury.
