Creating Integrated Employment Jobs for People with Acquired Brain injury
Abstract
People with moderate to severe acquired brain injury (ABI) have difficulty obtaining and maintaining competitive integrated employment due to cognitive impairments from their brain injury, which affects their daily performance, behavior, and social abilities. It is our strong belief that it is important for every individual, regardless of the extent of their disability, to have the opportunity for productive daily activity. There are benefits to society and improving one's financial situation, contributing to taxes and participating in consumerism, but also benefits in terms of an individual's sense of self image, self-confidence, and overall sense of self-worth.
