Home and Community Based TBI Program

Providing choices and support for individuals who have experienced a brain injury.

The Traumatic Brain Injury Medicaid Waiver Program
The Traumatic Brain Injury Waiver program is a special Medicaid funded program for income eligible adults who have been diagnosed with a Traumatic Brain Injury, and who without waiver services would have to live in a residential long term care facility. The program pays for services such as Service Coordination, Home and Community Support assistance, respite care, vocational support, housing support, and other services that are necessary to keep the individual living in the community.

The goal of the Home and Community Based TBI program is to assist the individuals with brain injuries to be in control of their lives and to live as independently as possible in the community. Our specially trained professionals offer compassionate service and peace of mind to our TBI clients and their families by providing a comprehensive network of services and support.
