Hand of Hope (HOH)

Subjects will receive arm training 3x/week for 6 weeks, each session is anticipated to last approximately 60 minutes. Sessions will be scheduled for Monday, Wednesday, and Friday whenever possible to provide a rest period between sessions. Each session will consist of the following: * warm up-passive stretch of hand in flexion and extension (5 minutes); * setting the EMG threshold parameters for the device; * active practicing of opening the hand (Desperate Bee, Hungry Bird, Sun Archer games; 10 min) * active practice of closing then hand (UFO Catcher game; 10 min) * open and closing the hand (Ball and Basket game; 10 min) * open and closing the hand while incorporating reach ( for subjects with adequate ability to reach with shoulder/elbow; 10 min) * cool down-passive stretch of hand in flexion and extension (5 minutes)
