Brain injury associations

Provincial and local brain injury associations are available across Canada and are ready to provide support, information, education, advocacy, and a variety of programs and services to those affected by acquired brain injury. Some of them may not have youth-specific information or programming.

Please note: The provincial and community brain injury associations are all independent from Brain Injury Canada, but all work in collaboration to enhance the lives of those living with acquired brain injury. There are no brain injury associations in the territories, Prince Edward Island, Newfoundland and Labrador or New Brunswick at this time.

Ontario

Within Ontario there is one Acquired Brain Injury (ABI) System Navigator assigned to each of the 14 Local Health Integration Networks (LHINs). While their general role is to help survivors, caregivers and service providers access the various ABI services in their area, they are also involved in educating others on ABI and assisting in the development of collaborations between different service sectors such as mental health, addictions, justice, and housing.  In addition they help to highlight the need for integrated care, particularly for those in need of more complex care, to provincial funders  Although they do not tend to provide direct support or case management, they are a valuable asset in terms of system navigation and capacity building. Please note: As funding differences do exist for this position from one LHIN to another, so does the extent of the Navigators’ involvement in these various roles.
