Get your advocate hat on! Brain injury awareness month is March!!
http://www.biausa.org/brain-injury-awareness-month.htm The website has a graphic you can use as well as boilerplate text for use on websites, Facebook, Twitter, letters to the editor, official proclamations and more! The only other thing I could ask for is a little ribbon-y thing and wristbands!  Anybody know? Is there an official "color" for brain injury?

OH! I spoke too soon. They DO have wristbands: https://secure.biausa.org/detail.aspx?ID=540
Now we just need ribbons.

Here's a Zazzle store I found that has cute buttons and keychains and T-shirts: http://www.zazzle.com/gifts?cg=19618...8&ch=msmihalov

I like the blue of those wrist bands better than the green theme in that zazzle collection, I vote for blue lol I wonder if there's any place to buy stuff like that in stores locally? Not sure what sort of place would take a special interest in a cause like TBI though, it's not like you would expect Walmart to clear out their seasonal department to stock up for TBI/BIA Awareness

I agree, I like the blue better too. But I like a lot of the sayings on the Zazzle store. I think the "loading time" button would be good for me to wear pretty much everywhere
