The Program

Targeted at senior high/secondary students (Years 9-12), the goal of the HU2BI program is to influence the attitudes and behaviour of young people to reduce their chances of sustaining a brain injury.

Do you have an unhealthy diet? Do you exercise less than three times a week? Would you skateboard without a helmet, or what about driving after having a few drinks?

These questions and many more are what students answer in the hu2bi program personal risk assessment audit. An essential part of the program, the personal risk assessment audit lets students rate how they would respond or act in given situations; accumulating a score along the way. Upon completion, the overall score is totalled up and students can see how many risks they are likely to take. Looking at their responses, students can give some thought as to how they might change their behavior to reduce the likelihood of them taking risks, which in turn could lead to acquired brain injury.

Are you taking too many risks?

Did you know that two thirds of the ABI population sustained their injury under the age of 25 years old. With a normal life expectancy this can lead to decades of consequences.
