Our Voice for Injury Prevention Speakers

Education is a key component to traumatic brain and spinal cord injury prevention and overall safety.  When we are informed, we make better decisions. Some of the most powerful educational tools are real stories.  If you are someone who has suffered a traumatic brain or spinal cord injury and would like to share your story with others so they can learn the importance of safe practices, email us at thinkfirstarklatex@gmail.com  

Voices for Injury Prevention (VIPs), speakers who share their experiences with traumatic brain and spinal cord injury, are important to the ThinkFirst educational program.
VIPs must meet the following criteria:

1. Must have experienced a traumatic injury.
2. Must participate in ongoing speaker training workshops and develop effective presentation skills.
3. Must use language appropriate to the audience.
4. Must not glorify dangerous behavior or poor decision making.
