Have you ever bumped your head or body? We likely all have! In sports and active games, there can be risk involved. Turns out, some bumps and bruises can really hurt our brains, and these may need a lot of time to heal. Rowan’s Law helps protect kids who play sports or play active games in schools just like you! Sometimes sports have an element of risk, and that’s okay so long that we know how to approach that risk safely! Rowan’s Law helps teachers, parents/ guardians, and coaches learn about preventing concussions (also known as bumps and bruises to the brain) and helps people who get concussions recover. On September 25, we ask all students to wear purple to bring awareness to brain injuries and concussions. It helps us remember to play safe and to tell an adult when we have been bumped on the head.
Rowan’s Law Day – Wear Purple September 25!
