Rowan’s Law Day is September 28th

Sep 28, 2022 | Concussion, Wellness

September 28th is Rowan’s Law Day in memory of Rowan Stringer, a 17-year old athlete who died from second impact syndrome due to multiple concussions while playing high school rugby.

Learn about the signs and symptoms of concussions and help students to speak up about concussions.

Let’s get #RowansLawDay trending on September 28th. The more #RowansLawDay trends, the more awareness we’ll generate about the importance of concussion safety.

Schools and classrooms are encouraged to take advantage of the Rowan’s Law Day Toolkit HERE.
