Screening for Brain Injury in Justice-Involved Youth
The co-design, implementation, and outcomes of this screening process provide foundational knowledge on the prevalence of brain injury in justice-involved youth (JIYs) and associated symptoms that supports the need for continued research and development of clinical assessment and treatment processes. These findings highlight the critical role of speech-language pathologists on research and clinical teams to continue screening for brain injuries and providing brain injury sensitive supports and services to JIYs.
