I’m proud to join my colleagues in supporting this resolution and helping highlight the importance of continued efforts to prevent concussions, promote safety, and improve care for those affected.” “Recognizing the signs of a concussion early helps people get the treatment they need to prevent lasting neurological damage from these injuries. This resolution calls attention to National Concussion Awareness Day to help connect more Americans with resources to prevent, identify, and treat concussions,” Senator Hassan said. “Today I am especially grateful to Granite Stater Brooke Schuessler for her continued advocacy to raise awareness about concussions and help others understand the risks.” Full text of the resolution can be found here. ### | 1 | 2026-09-22T09:42:49Z | 2026-09-22T09:44:35Z |
