“What I found was a real gap in what was provided and what was needed,” said Gerrity, who works full time at an engineering firm. “So, with the help of a few people, we created Brain Fitness.” Peggy Bargmann, a registered nurse and the director of a support group Gerrity attended, directs the two-day-a-week program. Clinical Instructor Janet Whiteside at the UCF Communication Disorders Clinic supervises the graduate students, who are studying speech therapy, during the weekly visits to Brain Fitness. For information on the program, call Brain Fitness at 407-927-4380.
