Kevin Pearce | Craig Hospital PUSH Dinner Highlight Video
On December 31, 2009, while training for the U.S. Olympic trials in Park City, Utah and practicing a trick on the half-pipe, Pearce sustained a severe traumatic brain injury. Although he was wearing a helmet, the injury left Kevin in critical condition and in a medically induced coma. He rehabilitated from his injury at Craig Hospital.
Post-accident, Pearce has become a passionate advocate for education and research on traumatic brain injuries and their prevention.
At the 2014 PUSH Gala, he was awarded the Christopher and Dana Reeve Inspiration Award. This award is given in recognition of Pearce’s determination, advocacy, and commitment to serving as a positive and influential role model to those who have sustained a traumatic brain or spinal cord injury.
