San Diego-based HeadNorth Foundation provides financial assistance in the form of $10,000 grants through their Response TWO ProgramTM to Awakenings’ Health Institute’s clients. The Response TWO ProgramTM was created “to provide survivors of SCI the necessary equipment and services needed to gain greater mobility and return to an active and productive lifestyle.” With the help of HeadNorth’s Resonse TWO FoundationTM, Awakenings clients are provided financial assistance to continue their rehabilitation.

Like a fingerprint, each spinal cord injury (SCI) and the corresponding needs of both the individual and family are unique. The HeadNorth Foundation is dedicated to providing comprehensive personalized assistance to SCI survivors and their families in the greater San Diego area.

Survivors of SCI continue to defy the limits of their injuries and are 'redefining what is possible'. But the quest for a cure for paralysis remains an important goal. The HeadNorth Foundation supports the ongoing pursuit of a cure for paralysis by sponsoring pre-clinical research studies aimed at developing practical therapies for spinal cord injury and by encouraging the sharing of information and collaboration between local research centers. In addition, HeadNorth seeks out cutting-edge therapeutic methodologies and specialists for post-injury rehabilitation.
