Join us for Brain Injury Awareness Month!
This year, the heart of our awareness campaign is addressing and confronting assumptions people make about those individuals living with brain injury. Whether people presume to know the limitations of those who visibly demonstrate signs of a brain injury or they assume that those who do not have outward signs of a brain injury have no limitations, confronting those assumptions is a necessary part of building a stronger brain injury community.
Click here for tips and ideas on spreading brain injury awareness and ending negative assumptions during Brain Injury Awareness Month.
You can also donate to the Minnesota Brain Injury Alliance. Ninety-one cents of every dollar you donate supports our programs that serve individuals affected by brain injury, including our Multicultural Outreach Program, our Citizen Advocate Academy, our Speakers Bureau, and our Education Programs.
Spread the word! March is Brain Injury Awareness Month!
