Research to integrate services for individuals with traumatic brain injury, mental health, and addictions: Proceedings of a multidisciplinary workshop

Abstract

We present the findings from a one-day, multidisciplinary meeting to gather feedback for an integrated knowledge translation research project addressing the integration of health services and supports for individuals with traumatic brain injury, mental health, and/or addictions; especially those who experience homelessness/vulnerably housed, intersect with the criminal justice system, and are survivors of intimate partner violence. This meeting brought together persons with lived experience, service providers, decision makers, and researchers, who provided feedback that further refined the research methodology and highlighted existing gaps. This event was successful in inviting collaboration, knowledge exchange and dissemination, and advancing an important knowledge-to-action cycle for this research.
