Advocate for Concussion Awareness
National Concussion Awareness Day
For the fourth year, the Brain Injury Association of America (BIAA) is collaborating with a New England advocate to educate the public about the impact of concussion. Brooke Mills, founder of lessentheimpact.org, came to acclaim in 2016 for launching the first-ever National Concussion Awareness Day.
