OBIA/BIST Mix & Mingle

Gluckstein Personal Injury Lawyers are proud Gold Sponsors of the 8^th Annual BIST/OBIA Mix & Mingle again this year. The years event is taking place at the Steam Whistle Brewery on Wednesday June 12, 2013. The event starts at 5 pm. This event has been co-hosted by the Ontario Brain Injury Association (OBIA) and the Brain Injury Society of Toronto (BIST) for the past 7 years. Each year the goal of this gathering is to give back, thank and celebrate everyone who works alongside OBIA & BIST in supporting those in our community who are living with the effects of acquired brain injury (ABI), along with their families, friends and caregivers, through advocacy, education, and services. OBIA & BIST offer many means of support throughout the year;

• Peer Support Mentoring Programs
• Caregiver workshops
• Monthly Community meetings for members and their families
• Connection to other brain injury services and organizations through an on-line Directory of ABI Services
• Certificate Training Programs
• Support and Advocacy through helpline

This annual event has been very successful in raising awareness of this important cause, as well as raising funds to support both OBIA & BISTs ongoing programs and services.
