🧠🎙Welcome to the announcement of Concussion Corner Academy®!!! 🎓🥼📻

Concussion Corner Podcast® is your trusted resource for interdisciplinary conversations related to all things concussion-related in healthcare, advocacy, and sport.

The Concussion Corner Academy® is a mission-driven online community seeking to change outcomes with research while helping direct-access clinicians improve their knowledge of the concussive injury acute to chronic and pediatric to geriatric.

The goal has always been to promote healing, decrease suffering, increase support, and deliver it with kindness to an often mismanaged concussion patient population.

We believe by providing thoughtfully curated education, training, and support, one clinician at a time, we will serve many.

In my career and recovery, I’ve learned that education and a supportive inclusive community are a privilege. And with that in mind, our philosophy at CCA® is Teach One. Serve Many.

Thank you for stopping by The Concussion Corner Academy®. I look forward to inspiring you to be a brain injury champion in all realms of treatment, advocacy, and support.
