About this service

ABI in the Streets is a low barrier program, supporting those who have a suspected or confirmed brain injury and are consistently challenged to meet the necessities of life such as shelter, food security, primary care, etc. While brain injuries challenge many people with mental health issues and substance use, it is apparent that those who are homeless are impacted at an even higher rate due to their circumstances. When clients who have screened positive with the HELPS screening tool* are referred to Traverse Independence, they will be assigned a worker who is fully integrated into the community mental health and addictions team. This worker, who is specialized in brain injury, will team up with other community workers to offer a brain injury lens through direct support for the client, information and advice to other team members and access to training and/or the Traverse clinical team.

Who it is for

Those who have a suspected or confirmed brain injury and are consistently challenged to meet the necessities of life such as shelter, food security, primary care, etc
