Minnesota Stroke Association
The Minnesota Stroke Association (MSA) and the Minnesota Brain Injury Alliance (MNBIA) denounce the violence of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and stand in solidarity with affected communities across Minnesota.
For more than 40 years, the Minnesota Brain Injury Alliance has served all people of Minnesota, including individuals and families who fled violence, persecution, and instability in their birth countries to make a new home in the United States. Our commitment has always been rooted in dignity, access, and care for every person impacted by brain injury or stroke.
We recognize that moments of social unrest, fear, and uncertainty can be especially difficult to navigate for people living with brain injury, stroke, and other disabilities. Stress, trauma, and instability can intensify symptoms, disrupt recovery, and create additional barriers to safety and supports.
No matter who you are or where you’re from, if you are looking for support after brain injury or stroke, MNBIA and MSA are here for you and your family. Please reach out at 612-378-2742 or 800-669-6442.
We remain committed to providing compassionate, inclusive support and to standing alongside communities experiencing fear, grief, and harm. You are not alone.


Join us for our Stroke Basics classes where we discuss the different types of stroke, how strokes happen, and how injuries to specific areas of the brain can influence different symptoms. Participants will also be able to describe the life changes that occur with stroke, and discuss some general stroke statistics.
