A Person with a Brain Injury
Social and community participation is important for everyone, including those with an acquired brain injury (ABI). When socialising or going into the community it is important that you feel safe and supported, and have access to activities that you want to do.
Social and Community Participation services at Brain Injury SA (BISA) include:
- One on one assistance to help you do things in the community or with others.
- Groups and activities run by BISA.
- Access to guidance and support in breaking down barriers and difficulties with social and community access.
BISA is committed to providing a range of services that will assist people living with acquired brain injury enjoy a fulfilled life. Some of these services are free, and some can be funded under your NDIA plan or other funding source.

Individualised Support
Brain injury SA (BISA) offers support for people living with brain injury through one-on-one support workers. A support worker can help you in your home and the community to do the things you want or need to.
Support workers help you to gain independence in doing the things you love. They can also work closely with your rewire therapists to help you reach therapy goals, and make daily tasks easier to complete.
This individualised support is provided as part of core support services under the community services team. BISA support workers can provide personal assistance, but are not a 24 hour or 7 day a week service.
