Education

The Brain Injury Association of Minnesota is offering an exciting array of new workshops to further educate and support professionals who work with individuals with brain injury and individuals affected by brain injury, including family and friends. These workshops will assist with endeavors to learn about brain injury, how brain injury impacts one’s education, work and life as well as prevention measures as a cure.

The Brain Injury Basics workshop series can be presented at your professional location and customized by age, culture and setting and be created to include information specific to the attendees field of work (i.e. educators, medical personnel and support, residential providers, social workers, etc.).

The 2010 series of classes are currently being scheduled. More information will be posted once schedules have been finalized.
