Brain Talk Day

Brain Talk Day is a community education and engagement event hosted by the Brain Talk Foundation. Designed to raise awareness about concussion, traumatic brain injury (TBI), and chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE).

The event features short, informative talks and interactive learning stations that simulate real post-concussion challenges. Participants will explore evidence-based strategies and connect with clinicians, students, athletes, families, and coaches who share a commitment to brain health and recovery.

The program also highlights the vital role speech-language pathologists (SLPs) play in cognitive-communication assessment and rehabilitation. [Northeastern University in Charlotte Master of Science in Speech-Language Pathology]
