Apply for Financial Assistance

Rise Through Resilience provides financial assistance to support the recovery and independence of individuals living with spinal cord injuries and other neurological injuries or illnesses. Our funding helps bridge gaps in access to high-quality care and essential resources.

Our support may include:

  • Funding for physical therapy sessions at licensed neuro-rehabilitation clinics that provide evidence-based, individualized treatment.
    Because of their proven expertise and direct impact on our family’s rehabilitation journey, Rise places a strong emphasis on care delivered through Adaptletics. Whenever appropriate, we will encourage our applicants to meet with their licensed clinical team.

  • Assistance with the purchase of adaptive or therapeutic equipment that improves mobility, independence, safety, or functional recovery.

  • Supplemental support for recovery-related needs that directly enhance an individual’s ability to participate in rehabilitation or maintain measurable progress.

Eligibility & Geographic Focus:
We prioritize individuals residing in the tri-state area (NY, NJ, PA) who are living with spinal cord injuries or other neurological injuries or illnesses. Funding decisions are based on the anticipated impact of the service or equipment on the applicant’s recovery and independence.
