Brain Injury Program Presents
Once every quarter we host a free virtual workshop for our brain injury community. At each event we have a guest speaker that speaks on requested topics from the brain injury community. We also invite Arkansas resources to come and share information with the community. Workshops are held each February, May, August and November.
