In FY21, the ADRS Traumatic Brain Injury Program concluded a two-year Federal Administration for Community Living grant, partnering with the Alabama Department of Mental Health (ADMH) to screen, identify and customize treatment interventions for individuals with TBI within the state behavioral health and substance use disorder programs. The 2021 TBI/ADMH dissemination report showed 1 in 3 individuals within the mental health system screened positive for a TBI, those with a suicide attempt were 2.6X likely to have a TBI and those diagnosed with a trauma disorder were 1.14X more likely to have a history of TBI.
