NRF is defined as a specialized service that promotes access to services and coordinates care specific to the needs of individuals with brain injury. Possible resources include vocational services, medical assistance, Social Security (SSI or SSDI if appropriate), and other organizations that can support reentry. If needed to gain access to services and organizations, the facilitator will also provide participants with a summary that includes results from brain injury screenings questionnaire, neurocognitive (thinking abilities) tests, and symptoms. The researchers will share information and coordinate with prison and parole staff about participation in the study. Participant's information will also be shared with resources that could help participants after release, such as funding sources and brain injury services. After release from SCI, the NRF facilitator will assist the participant with all the preparation and logistics associated with the resources the participant applied to.
