TBI – RRDC

STIC operates the Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) Waiver Regional Resource Development Center (RRDC) in 12 counties of South-Central New York, under contract to the New York State Department of Health. We assist Medicaid-eligible people with TBI to leave nursing homes and move into the community or to obtain services to avoid nursing home placement.
