ADACEA

What ADACEA does

ADACEA (Asociación de Daño Cerebral Adquirido de Jaén) is a non-profit association headquartered in Jaén, Spain, dedicated to supporting individuals with acquired brain injury (Daño Cerebral Adquirido, or DCA), their families, and the broader community. The organization delivers a service portfolio centered on three pillars: rehabilitation services, social inclusion programs, and family accompaniment and support, complemented by specific initiatives such as the Proyecto RESPIRO for caregiver respite and the development of a Nuevo Centro to expand service capacity. It positions itself as a social movement advocating for dignity, rights, and quality of life for people affected by brain injury.

The organization's technology footprint is modest: a digital platform and website (dañocerebraljaen.org) with cognitive accessibility features, supported by organic social channels (Facebook, X, Instagram) and volunteer-driven outreach. ADACEA holds strategic mutual memberships in the Federación Española de DCA (FEDACE) and the Federación Andaluza de DCA (FANDACE), embedding it within national and regional brain injury advocacy networks. A €7,000+ grant from Fundación ONCE in December 2025 is funding digitization and cognitive accessibility improvements.

ADACEA does not operate on a commercial revenue model. As a non-profit association, its funding derives from membership fees, donations, grants, and institutional aid rather than pricing-based sales. It has 15 employees, serves a single-province regional market (Jaén, Andalusia), and delivers services directly to beneficiaries through its headquarters, phone/email contact channels, and volunteer networks. The go-to-market is community-led and awareness-driven rather than commercial, with no disclosed paying enterprise customers, contracts, or revenue figures.
