Prevention

An estimated 227,000 people in Ohio are living with the effects of brain injury.  That's a startling statistic, especially when you consider that many of these injuries could have been prevented.  Being aware of the common sources of injuries and the risks associated with certain behaviors may help us all prevent brain injuries.

This site has been developed to assist:

  • those seeking statistics and causes of brain injuries
  • those looking for legislative and personal methods to help Ohioans prevent injuries
  • those looking for our partners in prevention, and
  • those looking for prevention materials to be downloaded for reference or educational activities.


Remember, the only real cure for brain injury is prevention.

Don't forget that we are here to help with your prevention efforts.  Call us for additional assistance or materials.  We are glad to have YOU on our prevention team.
