Students have joined us from the following institutions:

  • Amador Valley High School

Brain injury education beyond the classroom.

Through guided projects, mentorship, and real-world learning, interns and fellows develop skills in program development, screening and awareness tools, data collection and analysis, and trauma-informed communication. This hands-on experience prepares emerging professionals to become informed advocates and leaders who help create safer communities where people live, work, and play. Join us today!
