TBI Needs Assessment
Welcome to the Arkansas Statewide Needs Assessment Survey
Your Voice Matters
In collaboration with the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences Brain Injury Program, researchers from the University of Arkansas / UAMS Occupational Therapy Program are conducting a statewide needs assessment to gather input from Arkansans who have had a traumatic brain injury, caregivers / families and service providers to identify needs, barriers and priorities that impact independence across the state.
Your feedback will directly shape the program evaluation of the UAMS TBI Program. By sharing your experiences, you help strengthen our understanding of service gaps to expand access, and support for rural and urban communities across Arkansas.
