Happy Birthday Brain Injury Association of America


The Brain Injury Association of America is 30 years old today. I wouldn't be where I am right now without the support and love of Marilyn Price Spivack. She started it all and continues to be an inspiration to me. Thank you for your vision and passion Marilyn. 


I could tell thousands of stories about my 4 years at the National Head Injury Foundation, now the Brain Injury Association of America. The three greatest things that I learned while at the NHIF are: 1) The family is there forever, no matter what form, for the duration, 2) it's about relationships, 3) people want to live in their own home and may need a hand up, but certainly not a hand out. 

Here's to another 30 years x 10.
