Spinal cord injuries do have a prolific impact on a person's life but one can still go on living a fulfilling life after a spinal cord injury and many people do.

In recovering quality of life after a spinal cord injury, it is essential to actively gather as many resources as possible as soon as possible. Medical personnel are often able to connect patients with organizations and equipment like motorized wheelchairs, hand levers and ramps for automobiles, adaptive computer equipment, etc. that can help disabled people to resume many acts of their daily life. One of the most important connections a newly disabled person can make is with a peer network. For those with spinal cord related disabilities, the National Spinal Cord Injury Association offers a resource center that can point you in the right direction and provide you with valuable advocacy. Most of the people who run the National Spinal Cord Injury Association are survivors of spinal cord injuries themselves.

Certain governmental agencies are also available to help people with spinal cord injuries resume a high quality of life. SSI, SSDI, Medicare and Medicaid are available to help with medical costs and living expenses on a case by case basis. Vocational rehabilition can provide help in returning to work and attaining rehabilitation training and equipment so that one may again become productive. There are some subsidized housing projects that exist under H.U.D. with apartment buildings that are wheelchair accessible.
