What it reported doing in 2024

The Soldier Fund partnered with Braid Tap for a Study to measure the effects of Tramatic Brain Injuries with 15 existing and veteran military service members, annually.

Participants were and will be military servicemen willing to participate. The treatment includes daily sessions using the BrainTap device, with protocols completed at home and review sessions with a qualified professional. Baseline and Weekly Evaluations. This program was free of charge to any participants. All equipment, software, coaching, counseling, and additional treatment were provided to the participants at no cost.
