This article describes return-to work outcomes for 130 persons with traumatic brain injury (TBI) who participated in a vocational rehabilitation job development and placement program. There was a 68% placement rate in paid employment, a 71% employment retention rate, and a 75% employment stability rate. By contrast, engagement in paid employment was less than 40% for a group of graduates of a TBI day-treatment program and a TBI group who only received inpatient rehabilitation. This preliminary report describes the 3-year study procedures, service program components, and work experience of clients served.
