Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) is a huge silent epidemic within incarcerated populations, underdiagnosed and untreated. TBI leads sufferers to become more emotionally and behaviorally dysregulated and more likely to experience a variety of mental health disorders. This session will explore behavioral health best practices, current neuroscience research, the six TBI diagnostic trajectories, early diagnosis, and actionable treatment options.

• Review the prevalence of TBI in correctional settings and current diagnostic and treatment challenges
• Explain the current neurologic understanding of the six TBI diagnostic trajectories
• Discuss how to improve diagnosis of TBI
