Realize the Impact on the Community

Award-winning Edmonton Journal Columnist

June 3, 2011- Sutton Place Hotel, Edmonton

Breakfast Start: 7 AM Ticket Price $45 Table of 10 $400

For thousands of Edmontonians, the morning just doesn’t start until they’ve checked out the latest column or blog post from Paula Simons. Always opinionated, usually provocative, often quite funny, Paula never fails to get our city talking — and to get us engaged in discussing the issues that matter most in our community. If you enjoy starting your day with Paula Simons, here’s your chance to share your coffee and eggs with her in real life, at the Brain Care Centre’s fund-raising breakfast. A graduate of the University of Alberta and Stanford University, and winner of five National Newspaper Award citations of merit, Paula has also been recognized by the Canadian Mental Health Association, the Canadian Bar Association, the Alberta Civil Liberties Research Centre, and Canada’s Governor-General for her work championing civil liberties and inclusive communities. Join her as she brings her passion, her courage, and her wit to her discussion of brain injury, the invisible disability - and the toll it takes on our entire society.

The NABIS Service Team is delighted to have Barb join their ranks.  With over twelve years of experience working at NABIS, she has an intimate knowledge of the impact of brain injury on individuals and their families/caregivers.  NABIS has relied on Barb’s research skills and in 2009 she conducted an investigation into the needs of those with severe injury.  She is a champion of long lists, detailed notes, grammatical correctness and that life must include plenty of FUN!

Our NABIS community congratulates Barb on this new phase in her NABIS career!
