Respite Care

AHIF provides respite care to caregivers, giving them, at no cost, a brief break from the demands of 24/7 care of a loved one.  For more information about respite care, please call Janice Waters at 205.823.3818.

TBI Camps

AHIF currently provides two types of camps to its clients across the state.  
Recreational TBI Camps - AHIF offers recreational camps that provide survivors with a special and unique time of recreation and fellowship.  Currently, AHIF offers a week-long camp each year in late Summer at Camp ASCCA in Jackson's Gap, AL.  For more information click here, e-mail AHIF at info@ahif.org or call us at 205.823.3818. 

Bright Ideas TBI Camp - AHIF offers this therapy-based camp initiative through partnerships with local colleges and universities.  These camps are designed to help survivors and caregivers learn new strategies and initiatives that can help survivors and/or caregivers who might have stagnated in their recovery after several years have passed since their initial injury.
