Have your say about what is important to you.

As part of the national Brain Injury Awareness Month Campaign in June in collaboration with brain injury associations across Canada, Brain Injury Canada will be developing and circulating an open letter for individuals, families, caregivers and anyone else with an interest in advocating for the brain injury community to add their name to show their support. The goal of the letter is to show a groundswell of support for important issues relevant to the brain injury community and ensures this is made known to policy makers and members across all political parties.
