Supporting Survivors of GBV-Related TBI Through a Survivor-Led Support Program

This presentation will highlight key insights from Cross-Sectoral Solutions: Strengthening Community Capacity to Address the ‘Parallel Pandemic’ of Gender-Based Violence-Related Traumatic Brain Injury Through a Survivor-Led Support Intervention, a national project led by WomenatthecentrE. Drawing on a lifecourse approach, Gifty Asare will explore the often-overlooked connection between gender-based violence (GBV) and traumatic brain injury (TBI), and how these injuries can compound cognitive challenges across the lifespan. The session will discuss survivor-informed strategies for cross-sector collaboration, with implications for elder abuse prevention, trauma-informed care, and supporting aging survivors of GBV who may also be experiencing the lifelong effects of TBI. Speaker: Gifty Asare, PhD Director of Research and Community Impact, WomenatthecentrE
