- Pilot Club focuses on brain safety, supporting their caregivers -
A knock on the head is no laughing matter.
Joanne Patterson knows. She survived a head injury as a toddler. She’s been passionate about traumatic brain injuries ever since.
Patterson led the charge to charter the Pilot Club of Lake Houston – affiliated with Pilot International, a nonprofit organization chartered in 1921, with a mission to focus on encouraging brain safety and health and supporting those who care for those suffering from brain trauma. The club is named after the riverboat pilots who represent leadership and guidance.
