This season is made possible with the generous support of the Kimel-Schatzky Traumatic Brain Injury Innovation Fund.
It is estimated that for every NHL player who suffers a brain injury, approximately 7000 Canadian women experience the same as the result of intimate partner violence. This equates to about 250,000 new cases of Intimate Partner Violence (IPV) related brain injury each year in Canada. IPV is a major public health crisis, and includes physical, emotional, sexual, verbal, and other forms of abuse. Nearly 1 in 3 women worldwide will experience IPV in their lifetime, placing them at high risk of acquiring a traumatic brain injury (Brain Injury Canada, 2023).
In this episode, host Shaelyn Fitzpatrick is joined by guest speaker Lin Haag to discuss the often missed and unknown connection between TBI and IPV.
Guest Speaker:
Halina (Lin) Haag, MSW, RSW, PhD(c)
PhD candidate and Contract Faculty member with the Faculty of Social Work, Wilfred Laurier University
Research trainee at the Acquired Brain Injury Research Lab, University of Toronto
Lin is exploring the gendered experiences of brain injury and the barriers and facilitating factors influencing mental health, return to work, and social integration encountered by brain injured women survivors of intimate partner violence. Lin is committed to improving outcomes through direct practice, innovative research, and professional education, believing that increased knowledge and understanding in the community is key. In 2021 she was honoured to receive the Neurological Health Charities of Canada’s Changemaker Award for her work in IPV-related brain injury. As someone with lived experience of brain injury, she has been a guest speaker addressing issues of disability, brain injury, and marginalization for a variety of international academic, professional, and community-based organizations. Her work has been generously funded by the Ontario Women’s Health Scholar Award.
