Justin completed his Pima Community College accounting class this week. The class consisted of an entire  semester crammed into five weeks. Beginning Monday, Justin will embark on another endeavor at Barrow Neurological Institute. Justin is enrolled in a CTN for six weeks - intense cognitive retraining. In addition to Pima and Barrow, Justin was awarded the Hispanic Chamber of Commerce Scholarship and will be recognized at a formal luncheon in Phoenix on August 16th. Justin's determination and hard work has allowed him to succeed in his Pima Community College class and the interview with the Hispanic Chamber of Commerce.  The coordination and orchestration of getting Justin into the CTN at Barrow has required perseverance and persistence, demanding an enormous amount of time and effort. Although insurance doesn't cover the high cost of the program, the possibility of benefits that Justin will gain from this program are worth it. CTN is a necessary step in Justin's ongoing recovery process.
