About Us
Brain Injury Association Peterborough Region (BIAPR) is a registered, not-for-profit charitable organization, funded through Ontario Health East. We serve the Peterborough, Kawartha Lakes, Haliburton and Northumberland communities by providing non-medical resources and supports. BIAPR supports are determined at Intake. The Application for Service is reviewed, and the Intake Coordinator contacts the person applying for service and/or with the referral source. A client needs assessment (CNA) is completed during part of the intake process. This information will help to determine the supports and services that best fit the client’s needs. This also helps us to ensure that these same supports and services are in scope for our BIAPR staff to provide in the community.

supporting people with brain injury
As BIAPR looks to the future, we remain fully committed to increasing awareness of brain injury, and to serving those in our communities who are directly and indirectly affected.
BIAPR community support services are led by a community support team that begins with an intake meeting and an assessment of client needs.
Our Community Support Services assist with:
planning for living arrangements
providing support for independent living
referring to other community services
connecting with ABI day services
Once you have been assessed and registered in Day Services, you will have the opportunity to try various programs and services according to your needs. Our ABI Day Services deliver a specialized program, designed with you, according to your specific needs and capabilities.
Our Services are designed to form the basis of a comprehensive model of community support and service delivery. All clients have opportunities to try out programs and services to determine ways in which specific services could work for them. ABI Day Services deliver a specialized program, designed in conjunction with the client, according to specific needs.
As BIAPR looks to the future, we remain fully committed to increasing awareness of brain injury, and to serving those in our communities who are directly and indirectly affected.
We recognize that:
- the impact of brain injury can be devastating not only to individuals with ABI, but to the family members, caregivers, friends and communities.
- the impact of ABI can affect every aspect of life, often resulting in isolation and the loss of livelihood
- ABI can cause many physical, emotional and behavioural changes.
