The Brain Injury Association of New York State (BIANYS) invites workshop proposals for the 2026 Annual Conference, June 10-11, 2026, in Saratoga Springs, New York.

Each year, the Annual Conference brings together brain injury survivors, family members, caregivers, professionals, and service providers from across the state. It is an incredible event rooted in shared experience, practical knowledge, and the belief that learning from one another strengthens the entire community.

The Annual Conference offers a unique opportunity to share knowledge, strategies, and resources to enhance the lives of those impacted by brain injuries. Attendees consistently express deep appreciation for presenters who take the time to share their expertise, lived experience, and innovative approaches. Your voice matters, and your participation truly makes a difference.

Whether your perspective comes from professional practice, research, advocacy, or lived experience, your proposal helps shape a conference that reflects the real needs and interests of the brain injury community.
