AT Cares Program – 347

Still in its infancy the ATCares program being rolled out by the NATA is a phenomenal resource that has been long over due. I am excited to be a part of the program and have been a helping hand in Bubba Wilson being asked to be the district 6 representative.
Here we focus on the reason for this, basic tips and the effects it has had so far.
My one big take away: Say “I've been in a similar situation” instead of “I know how you feel” because you truly do not know how that person feels.
In case you missed my story here is the full episodes where we dealt with the loss of an athlete.
Episode 135 – Full story, very raw emotions
Episode 190 – After Action Plan – a follow up to the story

Kelly Salter was chilling on a beach and came across the Sports Medicine Broadcast and has been listening since then. She actually had her own podcast back in the day and has always enjoyed getting her content on the go.
Work life balance is crucial for Kelly. Her husband coaches at her high school, her kids attend her high school and she is the only AT there.
Set the expectation, communicate early and often and follow through. You only get one shot to raise your family, there will always be more freshman.
Also if your BOC is about to go invalid call them and ask what you can do. don't just duck your head in the sand
