Description:<\/strong>\u00a0According to the Center for Disease Control and Prevention,\u00a0\u2018Research in the United States and from other countries suggests almost half (46%) of people in correctional or detention facilities such as prisons and jails have a history of TBI.\u2019\u00a0\u00a0<\/em>The term brain injury is often only associated with \u2018blunt force trauma.\u2019 However, brain injury is a multi-faceted disability that has a larger range of causes and impacts to a variety of high-risk populations, including those justice involved. This training will also touch on Disability Rights North Carolina\u2019s newest brain injury screening program NC BRAINS and how juvenile and criminal legal providers across North Carolina can incorporate screeners<\/strong> and supportive services <\/strong>in their work with brain injury individuals.<\/p>\n
