A Survey of State Programs to Finance Rehabilitation and Community Services for Individuals with Brain Injury

Abstract

This article will review and compare existing state-funded programs and their approaches to financing, administering, and delivering an array of services, including rehabilitation and home and community-based services and supports to individuals with traumatic brain injury (TBI) and their families. A state-by-state chart provides funding and operational characteristics of the programs. The state menu of services provided and how they are delivered are also described. The article addresses how these programs fit within their overall state service delivery system, trends and changes that programs may be undergoing, and the influences that shape these programs.
