Free NASHIA Webinar to Focus on BI Resource Facilitation, New Resource Implementation Guide
The National Association of State Head Injury Administrators (NASHIA) will be offering a free webinar that will focus on Brain Injury Resource Facilitation (BIRF) and the new Moody Implementation Guide. This free webinar will be conducted on May 6, 2026, from 1:00 pm – 2:00 pm.
Brain Injury Resource Facilitation is a structured intervention that connects individuals with brain injury to essential resources to enhance independence and improve outcomes, using a flexible, person-centered approach. It involves needs assessment, resource navigation/service connection, and progress monitoring to identify a person’s strengths and challenges to set goals and coordinate supports. BIRF is an effective intervention for academic, employment, and community success.
This webinar will include a discussion of BIRF and the new Resource Facilitation Implementation Guide, geared towards addressing these challenges and providing a map to follow for best practice in this area. Funded by the Moody Endowment and created collaboratively through NASHIA, this guide will be a current and future tool for consistent service delivery and data collection/utilization for rationale to sustain these supports.
To participate in this webinar, registration is required.

ODP to Host Virtual Discussion on ID/A Waivers, ISP Manual, and Enrollment Process
The Office of Developmental Programs (ODP) invites individuals with intellectual disabilities and/or autism (ID/A) and their families to join in a virtual discussion with members of the Division of Policy and Program Innovation. These sessions are informal, meaning the conversation will not be recorded, and rules will be set before the session starts to ensure everyone feels comfortable and safe to provide questions and comments. The session will be held through Microsoft Teams.
Please note: This event is being held only for individuals and family members; this is not an event for someone who is only a professional.
What Will Be Covered?
ODP staff will demonstrate where to go online to find the ID/A waivers available in Pennsylvania and the Individual Support Plan (ISP) manual, as well as how to navigate within the documents. The session also includes a review of the enrollment process using the publicly available documents. Finally, ODP staff will discuss with individuals and family members who they should contact once they begin the registration process.
