Between 2007 and 2009, the Heldrich Center worked with the Brain Injury Association of New Jersey and its partners to evaluate a pilot service delivery model that addresses the unique needs of people with brain injuries and improves their potential for a positive return to work. This model, established as part of the Improving Employment Outcomes for People with Brain Injuries program, was evaluated by Heldrich Center researchers to inform the development of three additional project partner collaboratives. The center's initial evaluation activities looked to assess the strengths and weaknesses of the existing model and make recommendations for its improvement. This information was used to improve the model as well as inform the development of new collaboratives within New Jersey. Later evaluation efforts included measuring the effectiveness of the model toward moving individuals with brain injuries to employment.
