Hope for a Helmet

Hope for a Helmet is an Advocacy Coalition started by students who were all friends of Caroline Found. Caroline was an Iowa City IA high student killed in a moped crash in August of 2011. Caroline, 17, was not wearing a helmet.

Her friends learned that she is but one of hundreds of Iowans who have died or been injured as a result of moped and motorcycle crashes in Iowa. In her honor they are working to "pay it forward", and working to prevent the preventable.

The Brain Injury Association is a proud member of the Hope for a Helmet Advocacy Coalition. To add your voice to help protect Iowa's youth riders from death and disability from brain injury, please register here.
