The Purpose of the Colorado Advisory Council

The Colorado Advisory Council on Brain Injury (CACBI) helps guide the work of MINDSOURCE and makes sure the needs of people with brain injuries and their families are heard and supported. Made up of volunteer members, the Council brings together different experiences and viewpoints to create Colorado’s State Plan on Brain Injury – a guide for improving brain injury support and services across the state. 

Council members include people with lived experience with brain injury, state staff, community advocates, and providers. Person Centeredness is a core value for the Council and is reflected throughout the State Plan. To better understand how this approach supports people with brain injuries, Council members receive training on person-centered principles which you can view here. 

This Council meets in January, April, July and October on the third Thursday from 10:00 am – 12:00 pm via Zoom. The Zoom link for meetings is provided in the agenda which is posted a week in advance of meetings. All meetings can be found on the MINDSOURCE Calendar of Events and the CDHS public calendar. Members of the public are invited to join any Council meeting.

If you need any accommodations we ask that you please contact us a week in advance and we are happy to try and meet any needs you might have.
