Recent Success Story
In 2021, Sargent Center accepted a referral from Spaulding Hospital in MA. for a student who had suffered a brain injury. After completing an evaluation, D (name protected) a high school student with aspirations to graduate and attend a post-secondary institution of learning, was accepted into the Sargent Brain Injury program with one extraordinary obstacle: D was from Bermuda. Sargent Center administration worked with D's family to secure long term housing while D continued his successful rehabilitation at Sargent. After months of treatment and active engagement in Sargent's professional soccer instruction program with the New England Revolution Professional Soccer Organization, D transitioned back to his home school in Bermuda with ongoing distance support provided by his team of professionals at Sargent Center. D's ambition to graduate and attend a post-secondary institution were not lost due to his injury.
