"I feel powerless": Frontline insights into policy gaps and structural injustices in the care of people experiencing homelessness with acquired brain injury

Jubinville, W., Bottari, C., Ducharme, R., Thibault, G., Wagner, V., Roy, L. (sous presse). "I feel powerless": Frontline insights into policy gaps and structural injustices in the care of people experiencing homelessness with acquired brain injury. International Journal on Homelessness

Acquired brain injury (ABI) is disproportionately prevalent among people experiencing homelessness, who often face multiple overlapping health and social needs. Yet, healthcare services remain fragmented and ill-equipped to respond to these complex needs. Consequently, existing healthcare systems often fail to provide continuous and coordinated responses adapted to this population’s realities. This study aimed to document gaps in healthcare services for people with ABI who are experiencing or at risk of homelessness and to identify the barriers to implementing services to prevent homelessness for this population.
