Brain Injury Group, Inc.

Group Profile:

Our Support group was started in August of 1982 in Peoria, IL. For many years we were known as the Heart of Illinois Head Injury Support Group, Inc. Several years ago the Support Groups from the National level all the way down to the local Groups changed or added names to make people more aware of Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI). At that time we added the name of Brain Injury Group, Inc., or B.I.G., Inc.

We provide a place where we share information to help eachother, a place to share ideas and an understanding of TBI. We like to think of our Group as a "Family" of Survivors, Care Givers, Families, and Friends. Our Survivors like to be with others who understand and share the same life challenges. Our Group is a "Comfort Zone," where our goal is to ease the difficult times we all go through dealing with TBI.
