Provides community-based case management for individuals affected by brain injury. Case management includes identifying needs and developing a plan of action to meet those needs. Help individuals and their caregivers find their way through the rehabilitation process which can last for years following an injury. After determining what an individual needs and would like to accomplish, we identify and coordinate services to help them reach their goals. Monitor progress toward those goals and build partnerships and teams to create a lasting network for continued support. Primary function is to help individuals affected by brain injury return to their lives - to their homes, careers, school and communities - to the greatest extent possible.

Provide information about support groups around the state. The groups operate independently of BIAV but are provided technical assistance as they want from BIAV. Groups provide personal support and fellowship from members and help people who are living with a brain injury - either their own, or that of a loved one. Facilitators and group members help each other adapt to living a life affected by brain injury and provide fellowship and understanding. Some groups offer educational programming, recreational, and/or advocacy activities depending on the preference of the members. A complete listing of support groups throughout Virginia for people with brain injury and their families is available online in our directory: https://www.biav.net/resource-directory
