First, educate yourself. Educating yourself on the intricacies of traumatic brain injuries is an important first step. There are so many excellent TBI resources out there – here at TryMunity, we’ve included in-depth information on both traumatic and acquired brain injuries, as well as concussions.

Join a support group. This is key! Finding your community will help get you through.

Talk to people who’ve experienced a TBI and gotten jobs afterwards. Understanding, on a personal level, just how much brain injuries can affect people is key. Talking to someone who’s experienced a TBI will help provide invaluable insight into this health issue, and will likely give you a more nuanced, empathic overall perspective of brain injuries.

Give back to those in need. Donate to TryMunity today – your support will go towards raising awareness of this issue, and providing important support for families dealing with TBI.

Know that recovery of your skills is possible – but it may be a long road. The truth is, while exact recovery time is wholly dependent on the TBI patient’s injuries, recovery IS possible. There may also be long-term impacts and effects, which is why it’s always best to consult a neurologist or other professional to determine recovery time.
