Get Involved
Hey B.R.A.K.E.S. Supporters,
I’m glad you’ve found the B.R.A.K.E.S. website and you’re interested in getting involved. After my two sons, Jon and James, died in a car wreck in 2008 I learned that over 6,000 teenagers are killed each year in car accidents. My goal, and the goal of B.R.A.K.E.S., is to do everything we can to lower that number. Listed below are ways that you can get involved and join B.R.A.K.E.S. in our mission of saving lives.
Thank you,
Doug Herbert, Founder of B.R.A.K.E.S.
