SUBJECT: Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) and/or Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) 

The Computer/Electronic Accommodations Program would like to share the following resource from the U. S. Department of Labor (DOL):

The DOL has undertaken a project that focuses on the employment challenges of service members returning to the United States with Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) and/or Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD).  The goal of the project is to educate employers and the workforce development system on TBI and PTSD as well as on accommodations they can make for these individuals.

This website is designed to be a link to information and tools that will help service members, primarily returning from Iraq and Afghanistan, affected by TBI and/or PTSD succeed in the workplace.  Some of the resources include: job sharing, coaching and mentoring programs, factsheets, training tools and success stories.  For all these resources please visit: www.AmericasHeroesAtWork.gov
