Who We Are
At the Brain Injury Association of Colorado, we know that each person with a brain injury, stroke or concussion is unique – and that you may be facing challenges that others cannot see. Our team understands, and we provide the support, services, and programs you and your loved ones need to succeed.
The Brain Injury Association of Colorado is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization.
Dear Community,
On behalf of the board, staff, and individuals we serve, I want to thank you for your generous support!
Brain injury can be hard to see and understand, but at The Brain Injury Association of Colorado, we get it. We know each person with a brain injury is unique and can struggle with so many things. Every day, we provide the support, connections, and available resources that survivors and their support network need. Because when we do, survivors of a brain injury have a chance to thrive.
Thank you again for helping us to facilitate the lifelong growth of Coloradans affected by an injury to the brain.
