Episode 137
Today is National Concussion Awareness Day.
A time to remind ourselves that a concussion is not just a bump on the head, it’s a brain injury, a public health crisis, and too often, the beginning of a lifelong struggle.
In this episode we cover:
- Why concussion is a traumatic brain injury (TBI)
- The hidden impact on children, families, and communities
- The consequences of underreporting and insurance denial
- Why federal funding for TBI research and awareness must be protected
- What YOU can do to change the conversation
