The Brain Injury Association of Waterloo Wellington (BIAWW) is very pleased to present the Brain Injury Services Directory for the Waterloo and Wellington areas. We aim to provide current information to survivors of brain injuries and their families about services that are specifically related to relieving symptoms and effects of brain injury.
 
The Directory is structured to provide a brief explanation of each profession or service followed by a listing of those providing that service and their contact information. Although we have made every effort to include the most comprehensive and current listing of appropriate individuals and services, we also recognize that the field is dynamic and ever changing. Please report all additions, deletions and errors to [email protected].
 
The Brain Injury Association of Waterloo Wellington (BIAWW) is not engaged in rendering medical, legal or other professional advice. The BIAWW does not endorse any organization or professional listed in this directory. While trying to be inclusive, we have made efforts to see that the organizations and professionals listed in this directory have experience in working with clients with brain injuries. However, the BIAWW cannot take responsibility for any advice given or actions taken by any organizations or professionals listed in this directory. The BIAWW has worked hard to ensure that the information provided in this text is both comprehensive and accurate. Any errors, either of omission or accuracy, should to be reported immediately to the BIAWW.
