This event is mainly directed toward medical personnel and coaches. However, the public is welcome to learn as well, officials said.
“Even though the seminar is mainly for medical personnel, parents are able to attend because their children might be involved in sports,” said Rodriguez.
Some of the speakers leading the seminar include Dr. Andrew Blecher with Southern California Orthopedic Institute, Katherine Snedaker, LCSW, the executive director and founder of PINK Concussions and Sarah Ehrsam MA ATC, head athletic trainer with College of the Canyons.

This event is free to attend.
