National Concussion Awareness Day is on September 19
The State Council for Persons with Disabilities (SCPD) will join communities nationwide in observing National Concussion Awareness Day on Friday, September 19, 2025. This annual observance highlights the serious, life-changing impacts of concussions while promoting prevention efforts and emphasizing our shared responsibility to protect young athletes in the First State.
“Protecting our young athletes requires everyone’s participation—coaches, officials, parents, and the athletes themselves,” said John McNeal, SCPD Director. “National Concussion Awareness Day reminds us that sports safety is not just about rules and regulations, but about ensuring every child can participate in athletics safely and return home healthy.”
