appointment is approved by the Governor, the designee may take the place of the Council Member with full participation and voting privileges. Washington Traumatic Brain Injury Strategic Partnership Advisory Council Website Linkage Policy The purpose of providing links to our website is to make a wide range of easily accessible information available to people interested in Traumatic Brain Injury. Upon request of the webmaster of an external TBI related website and approval of the Executive Committee, that website will be linked to on a web page that includes a disclaimer that DSHS and the TBI Council are not responsible for the content, do not guarantee its accuracy and may not be in agreement with stated opinions. Requests for adding a linkage will be made in writing (or via e-mail) by the webmaster to the TBI Council Executive Committee. Requests will include a brief description of the website link and its relevance to individuals with TBI. Upon receiving a request, the Executive Committee will have 30 days to determine whether this linkage will be added to the website. Inclusion of the linkage is at the discretion of the Executive Committee. However, the Executive Committee may request that the full TBI Council vote on the proposed linkage. This vote should be placed on the next TBI Council Meeting agenda. The results of the Executive Committee's decision will be communicated to the webmaster making the request. The criteria for linkage will be: 1. the website is TBI related; and 2. the person(s) and/or organization(s) responsible for the website is clearly identified on the website with contact information. A TBI related website does not have to be devoted exclusively to TBI, but rather, could be a website that includes pertinent information useful to persons with TBI, caregivers and professionals among its other offerings. DSHS may remove a linkage if their policies, regulations or the law requires it. Complaints asking for the linkage of a particular website to that do not involve the violation of DSHS policies, regulations or law will be reviewed by the TBI Council Executive Committee. In the unlikely event the Executive Committee decides a link to another website should be discontinued, the decision may be appealed to the TBI Council.
