This Pride Month, we honour the voices and experiences of LGBTQIA+ individuals living with brain injuries 🏳️‍🌈🧠 

Too often, these stories are overlooked — but identity, recovery, and care are deeply connected. Everyone deserves to feel seen, safe, and supported in their healing journey.
This month and every month, we’re committed to amplifying voices at the intersections of queerness and disability. 💖

Acquired brain injury (ABI) community support programs aim to help support long-term needs through informational and psychosocial support. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, many support programs adopted virtual program delivery. However, the experiences of facilitators and people with ABI who participate in virtual support programs are understudied. This study aimed to describe the experiences of people with ABI and program facilitators participating in virtual ABI community support programs.
