About Brain Injury Association of Texas

The Mission of the Brain Injury Association of Texas (BIATx) is to imporve the quality of life for brain injury survivors and their families. BIATx is an organization which arose from the mutual frustration and sense of helplessness experienced by families in their search for appropriate facilities and support to return loved ones who had sustained brain injuries to maximum functioning potential. It was organized in 1982 as the Texas Head Injury Foundation by a group of family members and health care professionals in an effort to meet the needs of the survivors of brain injury. The Brain Injury Association of Texas strives to meet the urgent need for public awareness and education, to support research and rehabilitation and to provide family guidance. funds to accomplish these tasks come from individuals, business and industry, donations and grants.
