North Dakota Brain Injury Network Receives Grant Funding
Mar 8, 2022
A new state partnership in
traumatic brain injury (TBI) has been funded between the
North Dakota Department
of Human Services (DHS) and the North Dakota Brain Injury
Network (NDBIN). The five-year, $1.5 million project
has the goal of building upon past accomplishments to
move TBI services in the state from evolving to that of
an established comprehensive system of support for
individuals with TBI in North Dakota.
Funding

The funding is provided to DHS through the Administration for Community Living (ACL) and will fund the program through August 2026. Annually, $200,000 is provided by ACL with an additional $100,00 matched through the state.
"We are excited for the opportunity to continue the ongoing development of North Dakota's system of care for individuals with brain injury, their family members, service providers, and the community," said Rebecca Quinn, program director for NDBIN.
Grant Objectives
Objectives of the grant program include:
- Continue to develop the existing Brain Injury Advisory Council
- Establish a Brain Injury Voices program
- Expand the existing resource facilitation services to create a network of support for Native Americans with brain injury
- Partner with behavioral health and criminal justice providers to implement standardized screening and referral protocols
