Listing of Brain Injury Associations/Brain Injury Alliances (USA)
Although the DLF is primarily focused on basic scientific research that will promote recovery and regeneration of the injured brain, we recognize that access to information, services, and resources is extremely important to improving the lives of individuals with brain injury and their families. With this in mind, we are providing a listing of each state and the District Columbia with links to their respective Brain Injury Association or Brain Injury Alliance.
16 Brain Injury Model Systems Centers
The Traumatic Brain Injury - Model System Centers
