Community Brain Injury Services

What Community Brain Injury Services does

Community Brain Injury Services (CBIS) is a private, non-profit organization founded in 2000 that provides rehabilitation and community reintegration services to adults with acquired brain injury across Virginia. The organization operates two physical Clubhouse Model Program facilities, The Mill House in Richmond (Virginia's first Clubhouse Model Program for brain injury survivors) and The Denbigh House in Newport News (opened 2005), and delivers Case Management Services across 26 localities spanning Metro Richmond, Tri-Cities, South Central Virginia, the Tidewater Peninsula, and the Middle Peninsula. The Mill House and The Denbigh House use a work-ordered day model organized into work units (Communications, Advocacy, Kitchen, Maintenance) intended to help participants regain skills needed for independent living and competitive employment. The organization also operates Employment Services in partnership with Virginia's Department of Aging and Rehabilitative Services (DARS) and runs caregiver support groups and community education programs.

CBIS's revenue model is a hybrid of state-directed case management funding (no charge to individuals), sliding-scale Clubhouse service fees, Worker's Compensation and external funding sources for employment services, charitable donations, and event fundraising (including the annual Lifting the Silence Gala, which most recently raised nearly $82,000). The organization explicitly does not turn away clients based on ability to pay. Referrals come from professionals, family members, and self-referrals via phone, fax, mail, or online intake. The organization is CARF Accredited, holds leadership roles in the International Brain Injury Clubhouse Alliance (IBICA) and the Virginia Alliance of Brain Injury Services Providers (VABISP), and co-developed the Clubhouse Profile Questionnaire (CPQ) outcomes instrument through a 2017 CNI-funded $450,000 research collaboration with Virginia Commonwealth University and the University of Massachusetts Medical School. CBIS operates as 2 of the 17 brain injury Clubhouses in the United States and Canada.
