- Sleep Education Initiative
Better Sleep for Healthier Brains
Sleep is one of the most important foundations of brain health. It affects how people think, feel, learn, recover and function each day. Yet sleep problems are common across Ohio and are often treated only as a personal issue rather than a concern that also reaches healthcare, education, workplaces and communities.
OBCA is developing a public-education initiative to make credible sleep information easier to understand and apply. The effort is intended to help Ohioans connect everyday sleep habits with brain health and brain skills while creating opportunities for partners to contribute expertise, extend the message and support future programming.

- Brain Ball
Bringing Ohio Together Around Brain Capital
The Brain Ball is envisioned as a signature OBCA gathering that brings brain capital to life through connection, learning and support.
As plans develop, the event can create a welcoming point of entry for people who want to understand the issue, meet others contributing to the work and help build the resources needed to advance OBCA’s mission.
Event participation and partnership opportunities will connect to Get Involved. Sponsorship and financial-support opportunities will be presented through Support OBCA.
