Annual Report
We would like to share our 2010 Annual Report to the Community with you. The Aphasia Center of California had an outstanding year. In 2010, we provided 3,885 visits to individuals and their family members who are living with aphasia. Aphasia Center participants created their own customized treatment plans by choosing from our comprehensive array of speech-language and recreational groups. You will notice, too, that 90% of the Aphasia Center’s expenses were spent on direct program services—a record of which we are extremely proud.
Most importantly, we couldn’t have accomplished any of these things without you, our generous donors. Thank you for making a real difference in the lives of people with aphasia!
