Based on the serious injuries that have occurred through out this state and other states, we the tax payers of Wayne, NJ are demanding that each child that plays highschool football or a contact head sport be equipped with a "Certified Concussion Helmet". Let's not wait until one of our children becomes seriously injured or worse.
The feedback I have received from local families highlights the urgency of upgrading our current equipment standards. I am currently reaching out to school board members to discuss these safety requirements in detail.

The momentum behind this initiative has grown far beyond my initial expectations. It is clear that the safety of our student athletes is a priority for many families in this community.

My son plays for the varsity team and it keeps me up at night. These old helmets are outdated and unsafe. Do the right thing and get the new gear before someone gets hurt for real.

About time. Why are we cutting corners on safety when it comes to our kids heads?
