A resolution supporting the designation of September 17, 2021, as "National Concussion Awareness Day".

Bill 117 S.Res. 369 is a resolution that supports the designation of September 17, 2021, as "National Concussion Awareness Day." The purpose of this resolution is to raise awareness about the dangers of concussions and the importance of proper diagnosis and treatment.

Concussions are a type of traumatic brain injury that can occur as a result of a blow to the head or body. They are common in sports, particularly contact sports like football and soccer, but can also occur in everyday activities such as falls or car accidents.

The resolution emphasizes the need for education and training on concussion recognition and management for athletes, coaches, parents, and healthcare providers. It also calls for increased research funding to better understand concussions and improve treatment options. By designating September 17, 2021, as "National Concussion Awareness Day," the resolution aims to bring attention to this important issue and encourage individuals to take steps to prevent and properly address concussions. It is a bipartisan effort to promote the health and safety of all individuals, particularly those at risk of sustaining concussions.
