Research programs like Project Enlist are serving as a catalyst for advancing our understanding of traumatic brain injury (TBI), Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) and CTE and in military Veterans.
CLF provides guidance, comfort, care, and resources to patients and caregivers of those suffering with concussion or suspected CTE symptoms through patient and family services programs like the CLF HelpLine.
Cantu and Nowinski also advise numerous sports organizations, including the National Football League, NFL Players Association, the Ivy League, NOCSAE, and World Rugby, to create change from the top down.
After CTE was identified in two American football players, Nowinski recognized that building the world's first CTE-focused brain bank and rapidly accelerating research on CTE would change the global conversation on concussions in sports.
The Concussion Legacy Foundation's mission is to support athletes, Veterans, and all affected by concussions and CTE; achieve smarter sports and safer athletes through education and innovation; and to End CTE through prevention and research.
Our vision is a world without CTE, and concussion safety without compromise.
