Minds Matter, LLC is a proud sponsor of The Brain Injury Association of Kansas and Greater Kansas City’s (BIAKS) 2026 Annual Brain Injury Professional Conference.
The 2026 BIAKS Professional Conference marks the first time our statewide brain injury community is coming together under one unified annual event. This gathering brings providers, survivors, caregivers, advocates, and supporters into the same space to learn from one another, build meaningful connections, and strengthen the collaborative spirit that drives better outcomes for people living with brain injury.
Across two days, attendees will engage with leading clinicians, researchers, policymakers, assistive technology specialists, legal experts, and individuals with lived experience as they explore current issues shaping brain injury care. Sessions highlight federal and state policy changes, TBI Model Systems research, ethical considerations, innovations in rehabilitation and technology, pediatric and school‑age recovery, responsible AI use, long‑term adaptation, driving rehabilitation, family dynamics, and survivor‑centered support. Designed for professionals across rehabilitation, education, behavioral health, medicine, and community services, the conference offers high‑quality continuing education while fostering a stronger, more connected brain injury community
