Policy & Advocacy
We're here to make sure that you are heard.
The Brain Injury Association of Arizona (BIAAZ) strives to be a public "voice" for individuals with brain injury in our state. We believe our views must be considered as public policies are developed and implemented.
Our work in this area involves:
- Distributing public policy information and positions of the Brain Injury Association of America and the BIAAZ to the general public and to elected officials
- Advocating for increased brain injury research, prevention, and services
- Protecting the rights of people with disabilities and improving access to health care, employment, and self-sufficiency
- Acting as a liaison with other state advocates, policy makers, and organizations such as the National Association of State Head Injury Administrators, to strengthen advocacy efforts and maintain the BIAAZ's visibility in the field
