There’s something powerful about creating together. “Creative Corner” brings the brain injury community together - the 2nd Wednesday of each month - for an afternoon of artistic exploration, self-expression, and fun. Whether you’re a seasoned crafter or just curious, you’re welcome here. Come as you are and leave with something made by you! Crafts will vary each month – we hope you will join us for this fun and relaxing recreational activity (which takes place in both the Westborough and Pittsfield Resource Centers)!

Visit biama.org/forcaregiversandsurvivors and click on “Recreation Activities” to register. Our next "Creative Corner" is taking place from 1-3 p.m., Wednesday, July 8

June is National Gun Violence Awareness Month. Every day, more than 300 people are directly impacted by gun violence in the United States. Gun Violence Awareness Month was created to draw attention to this tragic reality and demand life-saving change. Every June, survivors, advocates, and community members across the country come together to memorialize the devastating impact of gun violence and uplift the ongoing efforts to prevent it.
