Every year, over 6,000 Canadians become permanently disabled by an acquired brain injury. The effects of a brain injury differ from person to person, but have an impact on everyone in that person’s life. A brain injury can be a devastating diagnosis and because it is not a visible disability, those affected are often misunderstood and lack support.

Education and Awareness

Our mission extends to educating the public about the causes and effects of brain injury, emphasizing primary prevention and strategies for living with an acquired brain injury. We aim to enhance understanding of the specific needs of those affected by brain injury and offer educational resources and tools to empower individuals with lived experience.

Support

We provide support services to individuals with brain injuries as well as their families through support group meetings, peer interaction, as well as social and recreational programs.

We have Support Groups located in Winnipeg, Brandon, Selkirk, and online. Contact our office for more information!

We’ve been there, we can help

The Manitoba Brain Injury Association helps individuals and families cope by offering support, education and advocacy. We also work to prevent brain injuries through public awareness initiatives and educational programming.

Our members have experienced the challenges of living with a brain injury and are committed to helping each other through the early days of diagnosis and beyond.
