Brain Injury Association of Tasmania
The Brain Injury Association of Tasmania
The Brain Injury Association of Tasmania (BIAT) is the peak body for people living with or affected by brain injury in Tasmania.
Our Vision
By 2010 the Brain Injury Association of Tasmania will be recognised for its work in increasing community awareness of acquired brain injury (ABI), and improving the quality of life for people living with or affected by brain injury in Tasmania.
Our Philosophy
The Brain Injury Association of Tasmania operates under a community development philosophy. This means in broad terms that BIAT aims to provide people living with or affected by brain injury in Tasmania with access to information, resources and services that encourage them to develop skills and make choices which allow them to build community support networks and control their own lives.
Heads Up 2 Brain Injury
“An ‘it won’t happen to me’ attitude is common in many young people.
The Heads Up 2 Brain Injury (HU2BI) program is an interactive learning opportunity for senior secondary school students that aims to reduce the likelihood of them sustaining a brain injury.
