Brain injuries can change lives in an instant. They can affect memory, emotions, communication, and movement. For those affected, and their families, the journey to recovery can feel overwhelming and uncertain.

In Alberta, around 5,000 people suffer from brain injuries each year. To help, the Government of Alberta is investing over $5.7 million through the Alberta Brain Injury Initiative. This initiative ensures that those impacted receive the crucial support they need when it matters most.

As survivor Mimi Tang shares, recovery is a lifelong journey. The Alberta Brain Injury Initiative creates a network of agencies that assist individuals in accessing vital community resources. Whether it’s through rehabilitation programs or supportive communities, this initiative plays a vital role in restoring hope and promoting independence.

June marks Brain Injury Awareness Month in Canada, a great time to recognize the strength of those living with brain injuries. Join us in spreading the word about the importance of support for these incredible individuals and their families. Let's work together to ensure they have the tools they need to heal and thrive!
