The Brain Injury Association of Canada hosts National Brain Injury Awareness Month to increase public awareness of the effects and causes of brain injury in Canada.
Brain injury in Canada is a silent epidemic and the number one killer and disabler of people under 44. Men are twice as likely to experience brain injury than women.
Acquired brain injury is a non-degenerative and non-congenital impact on the brain that may result in a diminished or altered state of consciousness and impaired cognitive, physical, emotional, or behavioral functioning.
The social, emotional, and economic consequences of brain injury are devastating not only to the survivors themselves but to family members, caregivers, support workers, and the community at large—anyone involved with working towards neuro-rehabilitation and recovery. There are currently no drugs or techniques that can cure a brain injury.
Automobile accidents, sports injuries, cycling accidents, falls, strokes, tumors, aneurysms, and other non-degenerative conditions are all leading causes of acquired brain injury in Canada.
