BIA-MA Southeast
 The Brain Injury Association's Southeastern office serves residents living in Southeastern Massachusetts. This office provides
information, resources, support groups, and informal counseling to individuals with brain injuries, families, and professionals from the
south coast, Cape Cod, and the Islands. Zelinda Pereira, administrative assistant, is fluent in Portuguese. "There are many people in this region with brain injury who aren't aware of the services available to them and
where to find them. Since opening the office, we've had a growing number of callers, and have
identified numerous medical, legal, educational, and social service resources in the area."
- Sandy Topalian,
Southeastern Regional Manager BIA-MA Southeast has more than half a dozen support groups that provide support and social/recreational
activities for individuals with brain injury and their families.
