The Advisory Council has chosen traumatic brain injury (TBI) as its first area of focus based on the pervasive nature and impact of TBI on children in the justice system. TBI causes lack of impulse control and impaired decision making, putting those with a TBI at risk for criminal behavior and substance abuse. Children and teens who suffer a TBI, including severe or repeated concussions, are nearly 20 times more likely to interact with the juvenile justice system or be admitted to a psychiatric hospital due to criminal conduct disorder. In addition, screening shows that 50% of adolescents enter juvenile justice with a history of moderate to severe TBI.
