Agency for Student Health Research

Our Goal: Achieving the safest possible environment for all children.

Our Mission: Integrating technology and data analysis to improve injury understanding and injury management.

Founded in 2010, we work with educational institutions, athletic organizations, and community health groups to increase children’s opportunity for success, focusing on health promotion and injury prevention within youth populations.

Because every environment is different, we begin our process by first assessing a population’s current conditions through data collection. This allows us to understand what’s working and what’s not. From there, we play matchmaker and establish local partnerships with organizations that can help improve any conditions that might need a boost. We also link organizations to national resources for online education and training.

With a mission of improving these environments, we are currently focused on expanding our Injury Prevention Network throughout the Nation. Now parents, student athletes, coaches and athletic trainers can record and monitor the types of injuries occurring on their teams, with the goals of improving playing conditions. With support from educational officials, youth sports governing bodies, and the STOP Sports Injury Campaign, our Injury Prevention Network is set to change the way youth sports injuries are monitored and treated.
