The Central Alberta Brain Injury Society (CABIS) is celebrating 30 years of support and advocacy within.
The non-profit organization in June 1994 was established by a group of concerned parents. The collective vision birthed a support network for survivors of brain injuries, caregivers and families. Since its inception, CABIS has been sustained by community support through donations, and proceeds from bingo and casino events.
Weekly gatherings offer a variety of activities and caregiver support, including the enlightening Travelling Brain School.
CABIS will team with the Alberta Red Deer Royal Purple to host the Brain Walk Picnic on June 20 from noon to 3 p.m. at Rotary Park.
"This event not only fosters awareness but also prevention of brain injury and serves as a platform for fundraising, ensuring our ongoing presence and assistance within Central Alberta," states a CABIS media release.
