Membership

We get by with a little help from our friends



The Ontario Brain Injury Association (OBIA) and participating community brain injury associations have formally liinked their organizations to become the Community Support Network (CSN). This arrangement will provide a stronger voice for people living with acquired brain injury and help to develop province wide programs. The Peer Mentoring Program is a prime example of one such program. BIAPH is pleased to announce we have signed a Dual Membership Shared Activity Agreement with the CSN.

From now on, when you sign up or renew your membership you will become a dual member of BIAPH and OBIA for one low price.

As a Dual Member you will receive:

  • A one-year subscription to OBIA Review
