Join the Office of Acquired Brain Injury in observing Brain Injury Awareness Month this March!
Brain Injury Awareness Month is a time to celebrate brain injury survivors, their families and their caregivers. It is also a time to raise awareness about the enormous prevalence of this issue and bring attention to the needs of individuals living with a brain injury. This March, the Office of Acquired Brain Injury (OABI) will be raising awareness, providing education, promoting prevention and offering service referral and coordination related to brain injury. The OABI team invites you to join them in raising awareness and has several ways you can get involved.
