Update – July 2023 – We are no longer able to run this program
The Brain Injury Society of Toronto and the Brain Injury Association of North Bay and Area are very excited to introduce our new program: Brain Injury and Law, a Functional Support Initiative, that is generously funded by the Ontario Neurotrauma Foundation.

We Can Help With:
- Accessing and planning transportation
- Advocating for courtroom accommodation
- Giving reminders of court or other important dates
- Providing support referrals
- Providing assistance in managing documents
- Assisting with communication needs
- Connecting with Vulnerable Persons Registry
- Getting a Brain Injury Identification Card
- Provide VIRTUAL meeting support (note taking, advocacy etc.)
