WEBINAR – The Many Faces of Brain Injury: Substance Abuse, Domestic Violence, and Mental Health

January 21, 2025 @ 12:00 pm - 1:30 pm

The Many Faces of Brain Injury: Substance Abuse, Domestic Violence, and Mental Health

Brain injuries can be the result of a multitude of factors, not just sports or car crashes. While domestic violence can cause traumatic brain injuries, substance abuse and mental health issues can cause chemical and physiological changes in the brain that can result in injuries that can permanently alter a person’s behaviors and personality. Please join us as Kim Myers from the Brain Injury Alliance of NJ explores the ways one can sustain a brain injury and how we can protect ourselves and others.

Kim Myers is a community outreach specialist with the Brain Injury Alliance of New Jersey. She holds bachelor’s degrees in health science and public health from Stockton University and has gained experience in developing and facilitating community programming on a wide variety of health topics. Through her work, she strives to empower individuals of all ages to lead healthy, fulfilling lives and create a better, more connected community.
