About AVBI~
American Veterans with
Brain Injuries (AVBI) was organized in 2004 as a grassroots effort
whose
mission is to offer support to the families of American Servicemembers
and Veterans who have suffered brain
injuries. AVBI.org went live
on the Internet in
2006 to provide a web based peer
support
network and information resource. In January 2009, in order to
expand support services and programs specifically designed for
these veterans and their family
members, American Veterans with Brain Injuries, Inc. was
incorporated as a Not for Profit organization.
Why AVBI?

family members. If you are on Facebook please join American Veterans
