Concussion Laws in Oregon

Event Details



House Bill 4140 (2020) directed the Oregon Department of Education to develop and distribute a form for public education programs to use when a student gets diagnosed with a concussion or other brain injury.  Max’s Law (OAR 581-022-0421) was enacted in 2010 and requires Oregon school districts to implement concussion management guidelines for student athletes. Jenna’s Law (2014) extends the intent of Max’s Law to Oregon youth sports and referee organizations.   These laws require schools and non-school youth athletic programs to create concussion management policies and procedures, provide and track trainings, restrict play and offer immediate accommodations in order to assure students’ safe return to play and to learning.
