Services for head trauma victims ­expanding out of ­Sherbrooke

The Association des Accidentés Cérébro-Vasculaires et Traumatisés Crâniens De l’Estrie (ACTE), the regional organization focused on providing services to people suffering the after-effects of strokes and severe head traumas, announced that it is branching out in an effort to reach more of the people in need of its services. Currently based in Sherbrooke, the association is on the verge of opening up three new satellite locations in Coaticook, Lac-Mégantic, and Magog where staff will be able to hold office hours and host activities. “It’s huge for us,” said Peter Nieman, Executive Director of the association, explaining that although ACTE is already a regional association, the new outreach offices will make it much easier to reach populations outside of the Sherbrooke area.
