Return to Work for People With Aphasia
Right now, about 2.5 million people in the United States are living with aphasia after stroke.1 Aphasia can make it difficult to talk, listen, read, and/or write. Stroke is the most common cause of aphasia, but it can also happen after a traumatic brain injury (eg, blow to the head), a brain tumor, brain infection, or a neurodegenerative disease (eg, Alzheimer's dementia).2 Many people with aphasia are of working age, and this number is going up as more young people in the United States are sustaining stroke.
