Mission Statement

Minnesota Connect Aphasia Now (MnCAN) is a non-profit dedicated to helping people with aphasia improve their quality of life and live fully and independently within their communities. The organization pursues three main activities focused directly on people with aphasia: provide conversation groups, function as a resource and develop community support. Aphasia affects a person's ability to communicate after a stroke, brain injury or other neurological condition. It can lead to social isolation and depression.
