"More than 50% of ... athletes reported a sense of hopelessness at least once during the COVID-19 shutdown."

This season it will be more important than ever to ensure that student athletes have the support they need to maintain positive mental health.

The #NFL will pay out $1 billion to avoid trial for covering up their knowledge of the link between football and concussions. It's crucial that we learn everything we can through research to protect athletes from leagues that don't care about them.
