Announcement: Brain Injury Awareness Month - March2014

March is Brain Injury Awareness Month. Through scientific research, programs, and education, CDC works to prevent traumatic brain injury (TBI) from all causes and ensure that persons with a TBI receive optimal care. Whether occurring from a fall in the home or on a playground, in sports, in a car crash, or by being struck by an object or another person, a TBI from any cause can disrupt the normal functions of the brain and can range in severity from a mild concussion to a severe, life-threatening injury.
