The Mutual Aid Group (GEM) Simon's Cocoon brings together people in Villeurbanne who have suffered brain injuries, in a spirit of friendliness, sharing, and everyone's involvement. After their accident, people who have become disabled testify that their greatest suffering is loneliness and exclusion. Simon's Cocoon enables people who have become disabled following an accident (head trauma, stroke, etc.) to restore meaning to their lives. To volunteer at Simon's Cocoon is to join a wonderful adventure and a team of committed volunteers!
