Patrick Risha CTE Awareness Foundation

No parent would knowingly sign a form that said:

“Your child could face a higher risk of memory loss, depression, cognitive decline, or neurodegenerative disease later in life.”

But many parents are never given the full conversation around repetitive head impacts.

Informed consent means more than signing paperwork.
It means understanding both the benefits and the risks.

Parents deserve honest, evidence-based information so they can make the decision that feels right for their family.

Our goal isn’t fear.
Our goal is awareness.

Kids deserve protection. Parents deserve the full story.

Your Brain Remembers Every Hit!!

Athletes may not remember every collision.

The brain does.

Every impact creates force inside the skull. Most won’t result in a diagnosed concussion, but the brain still experiences the effects of that contact.

That’s why brain health isn’t just about the “big hit.”

It’s about the hundreds—or thousands—of smaller impacts that happen over a season, a career, or a childhood.

The question isn’t whether an athlete can play through it.

The question is what those impacts may mean years later.

A scoreboard only tracks the game. The brain carries the history.

Help us spread awareness about this PREVENTABLE DISEASE!
