Six-month post-release outcomes for inmates with traumatic brain injury in supported community programming

Conclusions: For those that did receive services, these data suggest that it prevented an escalation of psychosocial needs. There were no differences in community participation as measured by the Mayo Portland Adaptability Index's Participation Index (M2PI) scores (t24 = .497, p = 0.624) at intake and after 6 months of case management. This study confirms that case management confers a benefit to persons with TBI who are released from the criminal justice system. Further, recidivism rates for this vulnerable group were no different from the larger population of returning citizens.PMID:38329082 | DOI:10.1080/02699052.2024.2309269
