Brain Injury Alliance of Connecticut

When a brain injury survivor, family member, caregiver, or professional turns to BIAC for assistance, that assistance is provided by a Brain Injury Specialist. A specialist's role is to offer the individualize support, advocacy, and guidance required to ensure that the often complex and overwhelming challenges experienced following a brain injury are handled more easily and effectively. The BIAC also sponsors approximately 30 Support Groups throughout Connecticut. All provide information, support, and encouragement to survivors and their loved ones.
