⚕️ Keeping Kids in the Game Starts with Safety.

If your agency offers youth sports, are you ready for new safety requirements coming in 2027?

Join CPRS D2 on October 15th for a Lunch N’ Learn focused on the Nevaeh Youth Sports Safety Act and what it means for cities, recreation districts, and other organizations offering youth athletic programs.

With new requirements taking effect January 1, 2027, we’ll cover what agencies need to know — including equipment, training, policies, procedures, and practical resources to help you prepare.

We’ll also hear from Joe Ellis, a sudden cardiac arrest survivor and AED safety advocate, who has dedicated his work to expanding access to lifesaving equipment in parks and recreation spaces.

📅 October 15th
⏰ 11:30 AM–1:00 PM
📍 Gibbons Community Center
4701 Gibbons Dr., Carmichael, CA 95608

Come learn what’s changing, what your agency needs to do, and how you can be ready for 2027.
