William Person is a former nine-year Team USA Bobsled athlete whose career left him battling the devastating effects of CTE. At his lowest point, he could barely get up off the floor, lost in confusion, depression, intense headaches, and a deteriorating brain. Hope came when he discovered Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy, which restored clarity in his thinking, color to his vision, and purpose to his life. Today, William is on a mission to raise awareness of brain damage in sports, the military, and other lifetime collisions, and share the importance of protecting and healing the brain. He’s on a mission to open a nonprofit Post Concussion Recovery Center to help athletes, veterans, and civilians heal from brain injuries -- at no cost to them. To realize this mission, he’s opened a 501c3 charity and has launched a GoFundMe: https://gofund.me/93ff9c6e , which will help him raise funds to purchase a multi-person hyperbaric oxygen chamber and open a Post Concussion Recovery Center where anyone battling CTE and brain injury symptoms can get treated at no cost to them. By removing the burden of cost, William hopes to give quality of life back to as many people as possible, but he needs the public’s help to do it.

Jamie Arber, MA, LPC, CBIST, CCH Executive Director, The Supported Living Group. Jamie Arber is a clinician, executive, and systems strategist whose work sits at the intersection of trauma recovery, brain injury rehabilitation, and community integration. With a deep background in clinical-community psychology and over 15 years of leadership in the brain injury field, Jamie has developed and implemented innovative models of care that challenge the traditional institutional approach and reassert the importance of meaning, autonomy, and structure in the lives of survivors. From a clinical standpoint, Jamie’s approach is rooted in a recognition of the hierarchical nature of human needs, physiological, psychological, and existential, and how brain injury often fractures the scaffolding that supports identity and purpose. His work aims to reassemble that scaffolding through integrated supports that are clinically sound, individually responsive, and embedded in the community. As Executive Director of The Supported Living Group, Jamie led the organization to become Connecticut’s top-ranked provider of community-based services in its category, delivering over 15,000 hours of support weekly to specialized populations. His leadership has not only elevated service quality, but also transformed operational systems, expanding markets, securing sustainable funding, and advocating policy change through direct engagement with state officials. Jamie’s clinical insights and strategic vision have resulted in the development of specialized programs for survivors with complex neurobehavioral profiles, including vocational rehabilitation initiatives that emphasize not just function, but dignity and contribution. Jamie is a Licensed Professional Counselor with EMDR certification and a Certified Brain Injury Specialist. He has presented on neurorehabilitation, systems transformation, and trauma-informed care across a variety of platforms. His work is marked by a relentless commitment to reintegrating marginalized individuals into the fabric of society, not simply as recipients of care, but as full participants in life.
