Supported Employment: Long-Term Support Approaches for People with Brain Injury

Through a partnership with the Disability Employment Technical Assistance Center (DETAC) brief, NASHIA compiled long-term support considerations for supported employment into a two-page resource. Creative approaches tapping into Social Security Administration work incentives, as an example, are highlighted. These approaches are especially important for people who need more intensive supports to enter or re-enter work and don't have access to paid Medicaid waiver options through Home and Community-Based Services. TBI grantees are encouraged to share this resource with their employment service provider partners, including state vocational rehabilitation agencies.
