About Us
This statewide project is to provide and study resource coordination services for TBI survivors & their families. It is a collaboration between the lead agency Washington Adult Day Services Association (WADSA) and its co-sponsoring partners - Brain Injury Alliance Northwest (BIANW), Brain Injury Association of Washington (BIAWA).
Survivors of a traumatic brain injury within the past 24 months - or their family members, caregivers, or friends on their behalf - are invited to call the Washington TBI Helpline to discuss a referral to this project to provide support services for the survivor and his or her family. Please call: 1-877-824-1766.
