OBISSS Subscribers

The Online Brain Injury Screening and Support System (OBISSS) is used by organizations across the country to identify and connect individuals with potential brain injury to the help they need.

Use the interactive map to explore our network of subscribers, learn about their screening focus areas, and find contact information for programs in your state.

If your state isn’t yet on the map, submit an interest form and be the first to bring OBISSS to your community.
