Get Involved
The Brain Injury Association was founded by families who live with the consequences of brain injury and understand the challenges first-hand. Our top priority is to support survivors and families who do not know where to turn next.
On a daily basis, our staff provides information and resources to survivors, families and professionals regarding benefits, medical facilities, housing, legal services, and more. The Association sponsors 33 support groups throughout the state that offer educational, social, and recreational activities, and provide PALS to survivors who suffer isolation. BIA-MA advocates for funding and improved services at the state and federal levels.
Our award-winning prevention programs have reduced brain injury in Massachusetts. Our court-referral programs, Brains At Risk and Gateway, educate first-time adult offenders and at risk youth, while our Think A-Head program develops health living habits for students in grades 3-12 and KEYS empowers new teen drivers to make good decisions when driving. Last year more than 22,000 individuals of all ages were reached through these programs.
Our conference and trainings have improved the skills and education of professionals in the brain injury field and have provided a lifeline to many survivors and families looking for new information, coping mechanisms, and hope for the future.
Without the support of donors, sponsors, members and volunteers, none of this would have been possible.
