Welcome to the Brain Injury Association of North Carolina

Brain injury is the last thing on your mind... until it's the only thing on your mind.

Brain injury changes lives and affects families. It is the leading cause of death and disability among young people in North Carolina. Brain injury affects 5 times more people annually than breast cancer, HIV/AIDS, spinal cord injury, and MS combined. Brain injury can strike anyone, at anytime, anywhere, and is a growing problem.

• Specialized training would better equip our schools’ faculties to appropriately serve children with a brain injury in the classroom.
  

• Sports and recreational concussions have increased by 60% in the last decade. Youth sport coaching staffs would benefit from more information about concussion prevention and post-concussion care.

• There is a significant increase of brain injury among returning military service members who will require long-term care in North Carolina communities. Military families do not qualify for Veterans’ services, and need a great deal of training and support.

• Brain injury is a major public health concern from both a financial and a social perspective, which is not addressed in our current health care system.
