Founded in 2001, The Wings of Phoenix Association is a registered charity funding brain injury rehabilitation in the National Capital Region. Fund raising events are scheduled throughout the year and are organized by members of the community and volunteer Board Members. Fund raising is critical as without the generosity of donations and sponsorships, clinical services cannot be purchased. The Wing

s of Phoenix Association is unique in that it is the only registered charity in the Ottawa area providing brain injury rehabilitation to individuals and their families who otherwise are unable to access treatment. Treatment costs continue to rise, and can be prohibitively expensive. While some individuals have access to third party insurance (i.e., WSIB, VAC, MVA) many are left without any reasonable access to the physical, psychological and vocational rehabilitation so critical to their rehabilitation and recovery. The Wings of Phoenix Association is helping to provide rehabilitation services to individuals who do not have the financial means necessary to access this crucial support. Optimizing recovery following a brain injury, including post traumatic stress injuries, requires the assistance of many specialized healthcare professionals. Please refer to the "Services" section of our page for additional information regarding treatment.

Our Story

The Wings of Phoenix Association is a registered charity based in the National Capital Region. The charity was founded in 2001 by Glennis Easey and Dr. Pierre Turgeon, and is dedicated to funding team based brain injury rehabilitation for individuals who have sustained an injury to the brain. Glennis’ husband, Robin, a former Nepean, Police Constable, was shot in the head on September 1, 1984, in response to an armed robbery in progress. Glennis and Dr. Turgeon, were key to Robin’s rehabilitation journey after injury and as a result of this experience, chose to dedicate a huge part of their professional lives to helping others who have sustained injuries to the brain. The Wings of Phoenix Association is unique in that it is the only registered charity in the Ottawa area providing brain injury rehabilitation to individuals and their families who otherwise are unable to access treatment. Treatment costs continue to rise, and can be prohibitively expensive. While some individuals have coverage through their automobile or health insurance plans, many are left without any reasonable access to the physical, psychological and vocational rehabilitation so critical to their rehabilitation. The Wings of Phoenix Association is helping to fund team based treatment for individuals who do not have the financial means necessary to access the necessary expertise to assist with recovery. Optimizing recovery following a brain injury requires the assistance of many specialized healthcare professionals.
