The Heldrich Center is working with the Brain Injury Association of New Jersey and its partners to evaluate a pilot service delivery model that addresses the unique needs of people with brain injuries and improves their potential for a positive return to work.  This model, established as part of the Improving Employment Outcomes for People with Brain Injuries program, will be evaluated by Heldrich Center researchers to inform the development of three additional project partner collaboratives. The Center's initial evaluation activities will assess the strengths and weakness of the existing model and make recommendations for its improvement. Later evaluation efforts will include measuring the effectiveness of the model toward moving individuals with brain injuries to employment.
