Our programs
What are the organization's current programs, how do they measure success, and who do the programs serve?
Wellness & Fitness Program
The Wellness & Fitness Program is structured to the needs and abilities of the stroke survivor. Participants perform aerobic activities using seated exercise bikes two or three times per week. Each participant's blood pressure and heart rate are checked prior to the workout session. As part of our Wellness initiative we also have balance classes and water exercises at 3 of our locations.
Verbal Communication
Continuous class for persons with speech disabilities to experience a feeling of natural conversation taking place around a table of friends discussing a variety of events from planning a vacation to discussing current events.
Activities of Daily Living
Following a stroke, individuals may need to learn to adapt to their situation - this may learning to write again using a non dominant hand, learning to read again or re-learn math skills. It might also mean that the stroke survivor needs to practice household tasks such as cooking and cleaning, and personal care such as dressing and personal hygiene. This program uses adaptive equipment, cognitive games and learning aids, field trips and activities, and the skills of OT interns and an occupational therapist to set, meet and revisit goals to regain the greatest independence and re-integration into the community and family life that is possible.
Caregiver Support Group
Caregivers meet in a safe environment to share their feelings, frustrations, conflicts, joys and experiences. This program provides a safe environment for the caregivers to give and receive emotional support and encouragement.

Financial data
American Stroke Foundation
Balance sheetFiscal Year: Jan 01 - Dec 31
The balance sheet gives a snapshot of the financial health of an organization at a particular point in time. An organization's total assets should generally exceed its total liabilities, or it cannot survive long, but the types of assets and liabilities must also be considered. For instance, an organization's current assets (cash, receivables, securities, etc.) should be sufficient to cover its current liabilities (payables, deferred revenue, current year loan, and note payments). Otherwise, the organization may face solvency problems. On the other hand, an organization whose cash and equivalents greatly exceed its current liabilities might not be putting its money to best use.
