March is Brain Injury Awareness Month! We’d like to start by sharing these stats with you, but our main goal this month is to tell the stories of adults with brain injuries, we’ll share how people are #morethantheirbraininjury.
5.3 million Americans have a disability due to a brain injury—that’s 2% of the population and likely includes someone you know.

If you’d like to get in on the movement to raise awareness you can check out the resources of the #MoreThanMyBrainInjury movement below. If you’d like help creating posts to share please let us know!

From now through the month of February you can have $10 donated to the BridgeLine when you reach out to Robert Gibb Insurance for a home or auto insurance quote and mention, “Quotes for a Cause!”

We’re so grateful to have Robert Gibb Insurance Associates with Rockingham Insurance be one of our sponsors!

Kindness and compassion are what the world needs more of. If you feel moved, you can give a gift to support adults with brain injuries this holiday season by visiting our website. Thank You and Happy Holidays!
