Service coordination
The Alberta Brain Injury Initiative (ABII) helps adults with acquired brain injury to live, work and participate in their communities. ABII is a network of agencies that assist survivors and their families in accessing supports from various programs and community resources across the province.
These agencies act as service coordinators who:
- provide information about brain injury and the supports and services that are available
- assess an individual’s needs
- work with survivors, their families and community service providers to develop service plans and service agreements as needed
- make referrals, where appropriate, for community supports and independent living skills development
- assist survivors and their families to identify, apply for and coordinate benefits and services

Awareness supports
Webinar – Brain Injury Learning Series
The following videos cover acquired brain injury, the recovery process, and coping with the effects of brain injury:
Brain Injury Awareness Month (BIAM)
Each year, approximately 5,000 Albertans suffer a head injury. If their brain is affected, they may need help to live, work and participate in their communities. Brain Injury Awareness Month in June highlights prevention and available supports for people with an acquired brain injury.
Publications
The Brain Injury Survival Guide provides basic information and support to survivors of acquired brain injury and their families. For a printed copy of the Survival Guide, contact the service coordinator agency in your region.
Advocate for Persons with Disabilities
If you are part of the disability community in Alberta and need advocacy support to navigate and access government or community resources, contact the Advocate for Persons with Disabilities at 780-422-1095.
