This session will focus on data from year two of the School Transition after Traumatic Brain Injury (STATBI) research study which examines return to school supports for students in grades K-12 after TBI. Academic, social, and health outcome measures across several time points (i.e., pre-injury, study enrollment, 3 months, and 6 months post study enrollment) will be presented. We will highlight ongoing study progress and implications for those studying, and using, RTS programs for students with TBI.

Learning Objectives:

Describe the need for systematic investigation of return to school supports for kids with TBI
Describe year 2 findings from the STATBI project
Describe potential implications for supporting students with TBI as they return to school
