Synopsis

Since 2012, Defense and Veterans Brain Injury Center and the National Intrepid Center of Excellence at Walter Reed have been conducting a study on the effects of caregiving on the caregivers and families of service members and veterans who've sustained a traumatic brain injury. In this episode, we talk about some of what that study has learned so far and how you can take part. We also discuss an easy way you can help spread the word about TBI this Brain Injury Awareness Month.
