The waiver is useful to prevent individuals suffering from Traumatic Brain Injury from institutionalization.
The philosophy of the program is that individuals with Traumatic Brain Injury have the same rights and therefore should be in control of their lives, encounter and manage risks and learn from their experiences.
Each participant in the waiver will have a Service Coordinator who will assist them in gaining access to needed services, as well as other local, state and federally funded educational, vocational, social, medical and any other services.
