Project Enlist Canada

Project Enlist Canada Project Enlist seeks to end the concussion crisis among veterans and serving Canadian Armed Forces members.

The goal of Project Enlist is to dramatically accelerate critical research on traumatic brain injury (TBI), chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE), and Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) in military veterans through brain donation. Research into the physical impacts of military service upon the brain will allow us to understand the links between head impacts and traumatic brain injury (TBI), ch

ronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE), and Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). That understanding will lead to better awareness, triage, reporting, diagnosis and treatment of brain injuries as they occur. Project Enlist also supports veterans experiencing complications from head injury through outreach focussed on awareness and assistance in locating treatment providers who recognize the significance of concussive exposure and its impacts upon wellbeing.

June is Brain Injury Awareness Month 🧠

Brain injury can affect every part of a person’s life, from memory and focus to mood, sleep, energy, relationships, work, school, and daily routines.

For many people, these challenges are invisible, which can make them even harder to explain and navigate.

This month, we’re raising awareness, sharing resources, and reminding anyone affected by brain injury that you are not alone.

Follow along as we share information, support, and tools for people living with concussion, persistent post-concussion symptoms, and suspected CTE.

Ottawa Race Weekend is just around the corner, and we need your help to make a difference. We hope that you join the Brain Health Challenge to help support those running to raise awareness about the long-term affects that come as a result of concussions.

If we all donated $25, our collective impact would help to fund critical brain injury research, improve prevention, and support those living with its impact.

Your donation will not only act as support for our runners, but will also have a profound impact on our research into brain injuries and how we can live in a world where the many consequences of brain injury have a cure.

DAY 59

Back in the saddle!

I rely heavily upon routine. I've been doing well with short disruptions (1-3 days), but last week I was on the road for 6 days and couldn't manage to keep on track with my workouts.

Getting up to go to the gym today felt like starting over. Like I had lost all of my progress and was back at the beginning. Leaving the house was hard. Once I got to the gym and got started I found all my fears and worry were unfounded, I was right where I was when I left off and I had a great workout.

Feelings come and go, but pushing through them is often where the rewards lie.

RUNNING INTERVALS
• Walk 1 Minute - Run 2 Minutes
• Repeat for 10 cycles

• Daily Strength Movement (Strength Training twice per week, GRID Method twice per day on days with no strength training)

With Ottawa Race Weekend around the corner, our runners are getting ready to take on the challenge and we’re inviting our community to come together in a meaningful way.

We're launching The Brain Health Challenge!

If we each donate $25, our collective impact helps to fund critical brain injury research, improve prevention, and support those living with its impact.

Because this isn’t just about race day, it’s about protecting lives, preserving futures, and advancing the treatments people are counting on.

Please consider donating to the challenge: https://www.justgiving.com/campaign/clfc
