A COLLABORATION OF MASSACHUSETTS REHABILITATION FACILITIES, CONSUMER ORGANIZATIONS, LEGISLATORS, RESEARCHERS, POLICY MAKERS, AND ADVOCATES WORKING TOWARD A COMMON GOAL TO INCREASE AWARENESS AND FUNDING FOR SPINAL CORD INJURY RESEARCH
The SCI Trust Fund was established in 2004 to provide funding opportunities for SCI research in Massachusetts. In 2015 the Fund was modified to increase funding and renamed the Thomas P. Kennedy SCI Trust Fund in honor of the late legislator who served four decades in the House and Senate and was himself a quadriplegic. Five researchers in Boston have received over six million dollars since the Fund began.
Please join us for a complimentary buffet lunch while we network and share updates from the Department of Public Health, a Hockey SCI Prevention measure, Clinical Research, a Clinical Trial, and Personal Stories. This event is sponsored by Senator Michael Brady, Massachusetts Walks Again, and SCIboston.
Let's push for awareness, funding, and quality of life – together.
Please register below by September 9, 2026, so we can obtain an approximate attendee count.
