🧠Brain Injury Advocates: We’re Not Giving Up! Last year, we fought for the Reauthorization of the TBI Act, believing it was a done deal—only to see it stall at the last minute. But that didn’t stop us. This year, we came back 400+ advocates strong from across the U.S. to push this critical legislation forward. We also urged Congress to increase funding for: ✅ TBI models of care ✅ The CDC’s TBI programs ✅ The ACL State Partnership, Protection, & Advocacy Program These programs are working to recognize brain injury as a chronic condition—ensuring lifelong supports for those impacted. Finally, we called for renewed commitment to the Congressional Brain Injury Taskforce. With so much turnover, we need new champions to step up! Brain injury doesn’t stop, and neither will we. Join us in this fight! #BrainInjuryStrong #BrainInjuryAwareness #TBIAction #AdvocacyMatters
