An overview of TBI will be provided with an emphasis on those functional limitations which can present as barriers to employment. We will review the kinds of compensatory strategies individuals with TBI may find useful in employment, the range of accommodations - both self-accommodations and employer provided accommodations, including technology, that may be useful. And we will discuss the role of natural supports and supported employment in maintaining employment.
