Welcome to Bridges For Brain Injury, Inc.!
We are a non-profit organization committed to meeting the need for a choice in community and home based services for individuals with acquired and traumatic brain injury (TBI). We serve Ontario, Seneca, Wayne, Yates, Monroe, Livingston and Genesee Counties.
Bridges For Brain Injury, Inc. is working to help individuals and bring awareness to the community on the
effects of brain injury on individuals and their families. Quality Services are provided to guide individuals with brain injury to
rebuild skills in order to complete everyday tasks. Frequently, survivors are placed in nursing homes at a young age or left without a support system to help them cope with their
disability. Bridges For Brain Injury, Inc.'s quality services prevent individuals from being inappropriately placed in nursing
homes or institutional settings. Bridges For Brain Injury, Inc. allows individuals with brain injuries the dignity of living a more independent and successful life.
We are an approved New York State Department of Health Home and Community Based Traumatic Brain Injury Medicaid Waiver Program
