BrainTrust Canada is an Okanagan-based not for profit association that provides community rehabilitation for individuals with brain injury as well as a strong focus on brain injury education and prevention for youth.
BrainTrust Canada has provided community rehabilitation support to individuals with brain injury since 1986 in the Okanagan, and provides education programs for youth to reduce preventable brain injuries for this high risk age group. For more information visit www.braintrustcanada.com.
