Brain Injury Council of Alaska (BICA)

Overview

The Brain Injury Council of Alaska (BICA) helps Alaskans with brain injuries they were not born with. Traumatic brain injuries happen from a physical force, like a fall or accident. Acquired brain injuries are those that have internal causes, like a stroke or a tumor.

The program offers TABI support and services, and through multiple agencies in Alaska. 

• Support and services include:
• Help getting a TABI diagnosis
• Creating a care plan
• Teaching skills for independent living
• Coordinating services or referrals
