Join the MoCrazy Strong Brain Injury Foundation and the WV Traumatic Brain Injury Services program on January 22–23, 2026 at Canaan Valley Resort for Alive to Thrive, a welcoming weekend of adaptive skiing, peer connection, and practical brain-injury support.

Designed for people with traumatic brain injury (TBI), their families, rehabilitation professionals, students, and community partners, the weekend pairs accessible on-snow instruction (with Challenged Athletes of WV and WVU Physical Therapy students) and fun social activities (snow-tubing, an evening film + keynote) with a one-day professional CEU TBI conference: Pushing the Peak: Elevating Brain Injury Science and Support.
