Participants Sought for CDC-Sponsored Study on Social Support in Adults with Paralysis

The University of Nevada-Reno is conducting a study sponsored by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) to examine social support in adults with paralysis. People with paralysis report lower levels of support compared to the general population. This study will explore factors that might explain this difference and how support for these individuals can be improved. Participation in the study is completely voluntary and all information is strictly confidential.
