The Washington Post’s recent story about a stroke survivor rediscovering his love for chess is a powerful reminder of this game’s incredible benefits for people of all ages and abilities ([Link to Washington Post article]). Chess isn’t just about competition – it offers a chance for mental growth, social connection, and even healing.
