“I moved from simply being to actively living.” A qualitative study on peer mentorship camps for adults with acquired brain injury
Active Rehabilitation camps enhance community-based rehabilitation for individuals with acquired brain injury by improving knowledge, boosting self-esteem, and broadening social networks. It is recommended that camp providers assess the impact of room-sharing and devise strategies for personalizing camp activities and effectively matching mentees and peer mentors.
