Every March, Brain Injury Awareness Month sheds light on the millions of individuals affected by brain injuries and the challenges they face. At Restart Inc, we recognize the importance of education, advocacy, and support for those living with brain injuries and their families.

Understanding Brain Injury
A brain injury can happen to anyone, at any time. It may result from trauma (such as a fall, car accident, or sports injury) or medical conditions (such as stroke or lack of oxygen to the brain). The effects vary widely, from mild cognitive impairments to severe physical and emotional disabilities. Despite the differences in impact, one thing remains constant: individuals with brain injuries deserve understanding, access to resources, and a chance to live fulfilling lives.

Challenges Faced by Individuals with Brain Injuries
People living with brain injuries often experience:

• Cognitive difficulties, including memory loss and difficulty concentrating
• Emotional and behavioral changes, such as mood swings and depression
• Physical limitations, including chronic pain or mobility challenges
• Barriers to employment, education, and social inclusion

Misconceptions and a lack of awareness can make these challenges even more difficult. By educating our communities, we can help break down stigma and create a more inclusive society.

At Restart Inc. we are committed to supporting individuals with brain injuries through advocacy, education, and direct services. This March, join us in spreading awareness and fostering a more inclusive world.
