The Oregon Athletic Coaches Association (OACA) along with the Oregon School Activities Association (OSAA), the Oregon Athletic Directors Association (OADA) and the Oregon Athletic Trainers’ Society (OATS) have joined forces this school year to bring about Youth Su***de Prevention in our state. High School Coaches and Athletic Trainers share a unique role in watching for signs of emotional distress in their student/athletes due to the relationships they share. Our goal is to promote and educate those who have direct daily contact with those who might have signs and symptoms that could lead to the risk of a su***de attempt.
