This March, take the time to remind victims of brain injury that they are not alone. March is National Brain Injury Awareness month, and the theme designated by the Brain Injury Association of America is “not alone.”More than 5 million Americans live with disabilities caused by brain injury, and about 2.4 million people sustain a traumatic brain injury each year in the US. During brain injury awareness month, here are some ideas for how you can take action:
- Retweet informative Twitter posts hashtagged #notaloneinbraininjury
- Tweet your own support with #notaloneinbraininjury
- Visit https://www.biausa.org/public-affairs/public-awareness/brain-injury-awareness to download, print and distribute, or to share online various awareness flyers
- Visit the CDC’s head injury website, https://www.cdc.gov/heads-up/ to learn more about recognizing and responding to brain injury, and to access numerous other related resources provided by the CDC
