Big news for athletic trainers in Iowa!

HF2600 has officially passed through the Iowa Legislature and is now headed to the Governor’s desk for signature. This is a tremendous milestone for the athletic training profession and for the patients we serve across our state.

The passage of this legislation reflects the strength of advocacy in Iowa and the collective voice of athletic trainers working to advance our profession. We are one step closer to joining the Athletic Trainer Compact, creating greater professional mobility and expanding access to quality care for physically active individuals.

Thank you to everyone who helped make this moment possible — your advocacy is making a difference.
