Public Policy & Legislation

The Brain Injury Alliance of New Jersey’s public policy principles and priorities center on our mission to support and advocate for individuals affected by brain injury and raise public awareness through education and prevention.  We strive to advance a public policy agenda to fulfill our vision of a world where all individuals with brain injury and their caregivers maximize their quality of life, the consequences of all unavoidable brain injuries are minimized and all preventable brain injuries are prevented.  This mission and vision guide our presence in state and local government affairs and outreach to you for advocacy.

The Alliance is proud to have many Public Policy Successes in recent years.  The fact remains that medical expertise is advancing—saving people from once fatal brain injuries—far faster than the community services and state systems needed to support people living with brain injury.
