Information & Resources

The Association’s very first service was a helpline run from the kitchens of its founders. To this day, Information & Resources remains central to the services we provide. Our Information & Resource Specialists field close to 2000 calls each year and rely on a large collection of publications, articles and resources to provide callers with information that will help them.

The Association's Information & Resources service is available to persons with a brain injury, family members or friends, professionals and the public. You can request information in several ways:

  • Call Us – Toll-free Family Helpline 800-669-4323 (in NJ), or main phone number 732-745-0200
  • E-mail Us – info@bianj.org
  • Write Us – Through regular postal service at Brain Injury Association of New Jersey, Inc., Attention: Information & Resources Specialist, 825 Georges Road, Second Floor, North Brunswick, NJ 08902

Our Information & Resources Specialists respond to all requests in as timely a manner as possible depending on the volume of requests, usually within one business day. The Brain Injury Association of New Jersey does not make direct referrals for professional services. Responses to requests for information are not intended to replace medical, legal or professional advice, but to provide a person with some of the resources available to help them make an informed choice.
