Concussion and brain injury may affect a student’s performance in the classroom. Because every brain and every student are different, individualized treatment is key. We have assembled a wide range of resources and toolkits for different groups of people who support the student-athlete both on and off the field.

- REAP Concussion
- REAP is a community-based concussion management approach that stands for: Remove/Reduce Educate Adjust/Accommodate Pace.
REAP was developed in Colorado and has since been customized for the states of New York, New Jersey, Florida, Alabama, Washington, Nebraska, Iowa, West Virginia and Hawaii. The benefit of customizing REAP for your state is that it will contain your own local experts, your local student story and local resources.
