#MORETHANMYBRAININJURY

Brain injury is a complex and often misunderstood neurological disease. As Brain Injury Awareness Month occurs, Brain Injury Association of America (BIAA) is proud to be re-launching their #MoreThanMyBrainInjury campaign, which empowers brain injury survivors, caretakers, professionals, family members, and advocates to raise their voices.

One in every 60 people in the United States are living with a permanent brain injury-related disability. With this campaign, we are centering their stories to increase understanding, reduce stigma, improve care, and showcase the diversity in this community.

Visit biausa.org/raiseawareness to explore the ways you can participate now.
