March is the Brain Injury Association’s (BIAA) annual awareness month. Over the course of the month the BIAA encourages the general public to learn more about how brain injuries are caused and the everyday struggles that those who have suffered a brain injury endure. The current BIAA theme is “Not Alone.”
How common are brain injuries?
According to the BIAA every year 2.5 million Americans seek treatment for brain injuries.
How are brain injuries caused?
Falls, being struck in the head, and car crashes are among the most common causes of brain injuries.
