Coach Beyond: Enhancing Mental Health Awareness in Sports
An initiative aimed at educating coaches about mental health and suicide prevention.
About Coach Beyond: Partnering with The Ohio State University, Coach Beyond empowers coaches with essential training on mental health and suicide prevention. Our goal is to create supportive environments for young athletes.
Why It Matters: Recent legislation, Ohio House Bill 33 (OHB33), highlights the urgent need for mental health education. Coaches play a pivotal role in their athletes’ well-being. Effective October 2023, all athletic coaches must complete an approved mental health training course.
Program Highlights:

- Valuable Resources: Guides and toolkits provided.
- Community Support: Join a network of like-minded coaches.
