Advocacy for people with
 Traumatic Brain Injuries

If you or someone you love has a brain injury, you already know that it can be difficult to find the help you need.  WPAS can help you find the information and resources that are most helpful for you.  WPAS has advocated for people with brain injuries since the 1970s.  In 2002, WPAS began receiving money specifically to advocate for people with traumatic brain injuries (TBI).  This part of the WPAS website has information for people with brain injuries and provides information about WPAS’ advocacy.
