Although the healthcare team will assist you in your recovery, YOU AND YOUR FAMILY are the most important members of the team.

STOP (Sports Trauma and Overuse Prevention) Sports Injuries
There is a growing epidemic of preventable youth sports injuries that are dismantling kids' athletic hopes and dreams at an early age. In response, the STOP Sports Injuries campaign was created by a coalition of organizations and corporations to help prevent athletic overuse and trauma injuries in kids. In addition, a Council of Champions has been established that includes business, sports and medical leaders to actively engage youth sports parents, coaches, athletes and healthcare providers in sports injury prevention.
