Walk For Thought celebrates the accomplishments of individuals affected with brain injuries while raising awareness and funds for the Brain Injury Association of Kansas. All funds raised stay in our state to provide resources, support and information to thousands of survivors and their families. BIAKS presents two seminars each fall for survivors of brain injury and their family members. These seminars offer opportunities to meet others facing the same hurdles, talk with area service providers and learn more about brain injury.

Annual Conference for Professionals Beyond Rehab: Succeeding at Life
In an effort to “go-green”, participants will receive a link to handouts via email. Participants are encouraged to download these presentations to their personal computer or flash drive to access during the event, or print online beforehand.
Walk for Thought
1 in 10 individuals will be touched by brain injury. Brain injury can occur anytime, anywhere, and to anyone. Let’s do our part to honor those whose lives have been impacted by brain injury.
In 2020, you can participate in the Walk for Thought on Memorial Day by registering for the walk as part of the Going the Distance for Brain Injury Memorial Day Run.
