Rehabilitation after a brain injury is about so much more than healing. It is about rebuilding confidence, restoring independence, rediscovering purpose, and creating new possibilities for the future.

The work of rehabilitation professionals does not end when a patient leaves the hospital. The skills they teach, the encouragement they provide, and the hope they inspire have a lasting impact on survivors and their families for years to come.

That is why the Brain Injury Association of New York State is proud to recognize the NewYork-Presbyterian Brooklyn Methodist Hospital Inpatient Rehabilitation Unit as our 2026 March On for Brain Injury Statewide Program Honoree. Their unwavering commitment to helping brain injury survivors rebuild their lives and live again exemplifies the very best of rehabilitation care.

Join us at March On for Brain Injury on September 26 as we celebrate the professionals who make recovery possible and the survivors whose resilience inspires us all.

Back-to-school season is here, and while getting ready for a new school year can be exciting, it can also come with questions, challenges, and a need for a little extra support.

For children and young adults who have sustained a brain injury before the age of 22, the transition back to school and navigating everyday life can sometimes feel overwhelming. The BIANYS FACTS Program (Family, Advocacy, Counseling & Training Services) is here to help.

FACTS provides support, advocacy, counseling, and training to individuals and families impacted by childhood brain injury, helping them navigate challenges and connect with the resources they need.

Sometimes, you do not have to figure it all out on your own. If you or someone you know could use support, BIANYS is here to help.

Learn more about the FACTS Program and how we can support you and your family.
