YPSILANTI, Mich., Oct. 22, 2009— The Michigan Brain Injury Provider Council (MBIPC) held a meeting in early October to elect officers and appoint Committee Chairs. Lynn Brouwers, Program Director at Rainbow Rehabilitation Centers, was elected President of the Council.
Rainbow Rehabilitation Centers has been involved with the MBIPC since its inception and has had several employees serve on the council’s Board of Directors over the years.
- Two other Rainbow employees were appointed to chair committees on the MBIPC Board of
Directors, including:

"I am pleased that we are able to continue to contribute to the success of the MBIPC in a meaningful way," said Bill Buccalo, President of Rainbow Rehabilitation Centers. "The outgoing Council President, Kim Swartz, along with the entire board, has done a tremendous job over the past years to raise the value of the council to the brain injury community.
