Flourishing with a Traumatic Brain Injury, every single day
Meet Jen - TBI survivor and life-long rehabilitator
Jen Schuringa had a life-changing traumatic brain injury (TBI) back in 2013. Her injury impacted the communication between her brain and body; it’s as though she’s locked in.
Despite this injury, Jen’s approach to life is inspirational. Follow her journey on the Camino de Santiago and learn from her ten years of brain injury rehabilitation experience as she defines new meaning in her life and her community!
The Camino de Santiago
Jen is currently planning a once-in-a-lifetime breakout opportunity to traverse the Camino de Santiago across the North of Spain in her wheel chair. She’s bringing along J’s Crew (her team of volunteers!) to support her journey as she conquers fears and spreads awareness about TBI.
J’s Crew
J’s Crew will be pushing Jen in her wheelchair on the Camino de Santiago. We are 15 people who will be supporting Jen’s goal to launch her community and we are so proud to be a part of her journey!
