Why Being Brain Injury Informed is a Critical Component of Person-Centered Thinking, Planning, and Practice

Event Description: 

The National Center on Advancing Person-Centered Practices and Systems (NCAPPS) is hosting a webinar on traumatic brain injury. Traumatic brain injury is a leading cause of death and disability of all ages, and it is commonly found to be a co-occurring condition among individuals living with mental health challenges, substance use related disorders, and other disabling conditions. Participants of the webinar will learn how brain injury considerations and person-centered practices differ from plans supporting other disability populations, as well as accommodations and strategies for addressing brain injury-related cognitive, behavioral, and social issues with regard to person-centered plan development.
