Episode 220 Jason Stoffer

This week on the Live to Walk Again Podcast we had the pleasure of speaking with Jason Stroffer who is the host of the CureCast Podcast, the Cure Advocacy Network Manager for Unite 2 Fight Paralysis, and a Spinal Cord Injury Survivor. We spoke with Jason about the car accident that left him paralyzed, 7 1/2 years ago, the process of getting accepted into Craig Hospital for his rehabilitation, and how he got into SCI advocacy so early on after his injury. We then chat about the elephant in the room regarding the elimination of funding for SCIRP which is about 1/3 of SCI research funding and arguably the most important 1/3. Jason lays out what SCIRP does, why it's so important, and some ways that we can fight to get this funding reinstated. Connect with Jason and Unite 2 Fight Paralysis at the links below!! Please listen, like, rate, review, and share the podcast!! We're just trying to find a cure for paralysis!!
