The words we use to talk about brain injury matter. They affect how people understand and think about injuries, get support, and live well.

As part of the Traumatic Brain Injury Model Systems Collaborative, healthcare professionals, researchers, and people with lived experience came together to create new guidance for clinicians, researchers, policymakers, and people with lived experienced (survivors, care partners) of brain injury on communicating about brain injury.

Key message: Brain injury doesn't define a person. It's just one part of who they are.
