Cover Story: Homelessness is often accompanied by risk factors for poor health, such as uninhabitable living conditions, violence, substance use, decreased access to health care, and health issues in general, including but not limited to traumatic brain injury (TBI). The rates of TBI are significantly higher among individuals experiencing homelessness compared to the general population. Individuals experiencing homelessness are at a disproportionately high risk for sustaining a TBI. This is in part because individuals experiencing homelessness are more likely to be victimized by assaults, have a higher propensity for risk-taking, and have higher rates of substance use. The relationship between TBI and homelessness is not well understood. This paper aims to better understand the intersection of TBI and homelessness and the impact of COVID-19. View this paper
