A New FREE CDC Online Training Helps Prepare Coaches and Parents in Less than 30 Minutes
Heads Up: Concussion in Youth Sports is a free online training available to coaches, parents, and others helping to keep athletes safe from concussion. The training was developed by CDC’s Injury Center in partnership and other leading organizations.

Protect the Ones You Love
Parents can play a life-saving role in protecting children from injuries. In an effort to raise parents’ awareness
about the leading causes of child injury in the United States and how they can be prevented, the Centers for Disease
Control and Prevention has launched the “Protect the Ones You Love” initiative. For more information, visit
