Reimagining rehabilitation through access, expertise, and the courage to build what is missing.
Our Vision
To be a world class post-acute rehabilitation facility through expert evidence-based care,
equalized patient access without financial barriers, and a passionate dedication to education, research and community outreach.
Mission

This facility will offer specialized therapies, physiatry services, residential rehabilitation care, and community integration programs, all conveniently located under one roof. Our non-profit model ensures that every person, regardless of their circumstances, has a clear pathway to access transformative, world-class rehabilitation.

Our Story
The journey we're on is not always the one we chose.
On March 9, 2020, a skiing accident changed our family’s life. At just 15, our son Devon sustained a severe traumatic brain injury. The years that followed have been defined by critical care, hard-won milestones, and a new understanding of what recovery really demands.
As we navigated Devon’s recovery journey, we discovered gaps too many families face after the hospital: fragmented services, confusing handoffs, and limited access to long-term, specialized rehabilitation. We created D1Strong-The Journey as the fundraising component of Rise Neurorehab Institute to close those gaps so that those who have experienced neurological injuries can reclaim their lives with dignity and support.
Your contribution helps remove barriers to post-acute care and opens our doors to more families who need a clear path forward. Thank you for being part of this work.
