                                                 Brain Injury Awareness Month  
The Brain Injury Association of America recognizes March as National Brain Injury Awareness month to raise awareness of Traumatic Brain Injury.  Each year, an estimated 2.4 million people sustain a traumatic brain injury and another 795000 a year sustain an acquired brain injury through non traumatic causes (www.nctsn.org).  Brainfacts.org, biausa.org, and traumaticbraininjuryatoz.org are three of the websites where brain injury survivors, their families, and people interested in this topic can go to learn more about TBI's, the people who sustain them, and the success stories of the many TBI survivors that continue to overcome their injuries
