The Rehabilitation Institute |
The mission of the Rehabilitation Institute of Kansas City is to Build Brighter Futures for children and adults with disabilities. The Institute opened its doors in 1947 with a desire to offer services that individuals with disabilities need to progress to their highest potentials - physically, socially and vocationally. While the Institute serves every disability group, it has earned a reputation as the "place to go" for the most challenging disabilities such as spinal cord injury, traumatic brain injury, stroke, birth defect, developmental delay and neurological disorders. With more than 123 medical and vocational professionals on staff, the Institute provides the most comprehensive rehabilitation services in the region. Its programs are highly individualized, goal oriented and assist individuals at all stages of life, from infancy through senior adulthood.
