Downers Grove Public Library

Meeting Room Both (Max Capacity 100)

In honor of Brain Injury Awareness Month, take a look at the interconnection between trauma, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), and traumatic brain injury (TBI).

Breathing & Blinking is an informative and insightful look at the interconnection between trauma, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), and traumatic brain injury (TBI) through the lens of someone who lives with all three. Deeply personal while covering the latest theories, research, and treatments, audiences will gain a deep understanding of the subject matter and be inspired by Nancy's journey.

Attendees will learn how to:

  1. Understand the effects of trauma on cognitive development;
  2. Increase recognition of TBI;
  3. Recognize the relationship between PTSD and TBI;
  4. Understand new TBI treatment options.
