Awareness is an all year, 24/7 endeavor! Whether you are a member of the media looking for information, someone personally affected looking for ways to get more involved, or someone looking for more information about how you can help, a member of our team is happy to assist you with questions related to brain injury, events, news, and more!

Our organization partners with the Brain Injury Association of America (BIAA) in observing Brain Injury Awareness Month through a month-long awareness campaign in March each year.

Our current Brain Injury Awareness campaign, My Brain Injury Journey, is meant to help amplify the voices of brain injury survivors, families, and caregivers and to spotlight the uniqueness of each person’s lives, experiences, and stories.

Share Your Story

Everyone affected by brain injury has a story to tell. No matter where you are on your brain injury journey, your story deserves to be told. It’s up to us – survivors, families, caregivers, professionals, and friends – to tell those stories. Because when more people know about life with brain injury and the resilience it requires, the easier it will be for them to understand us, our experiences, and our community. We hope you’ll share your stories about your unique brain injury journey, and what you’ve found along the way. Tell our community who you are, where you’ve been, what you’ve accomplished, and where you hope to go.
