I am both a and a past-NCAA DIV 1 . That means that I am passionate about sports, athletics, and an active lifestyle. It also means that I am grimly aware of the possible outcomes of spinal cord injuries.

September is National Spinal Cord Injury Awareness Month. It's a good time to remind ourselves.

● Always wear your seatbelt and use child restraint devices in your vehicle.
● Always wear appropriate protective equipment.
● Follow the rules of all sports. Many are designed to reduce the risk of injury.
● Never dive into unknown waters.
● Never move someone who has a suspected spinal cord injury. Let emergency professionals evaluate the injured person.

Play safe and play smart.

Ratified August 18, 1920 and certified on this day (August 26, 1920)

"The right of citizens of the United States to vote shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any State on account of s*x.

Congress shall have power to enforce this article by appropriate legislation."

There are still around 4000 women alive in America who were born before the 19th Amendment became part to the Constitution.
