Assemblymember Marc Berman visits Stanford University

In November, Assemblyman Marc Berman visited Stanford University to meet with athletic trainers and tour the healthcare facilities there. Assemblyman Berman is a co-author on AB 1510, which would grant licensure to athletic trainers in the state of California if passed. California continues to be the only state that does not mandate licensure for athletic trainers. Assemblyman Berman toured the NCAA varsity sport facilities, the Phillip & Penelope Knight Athletic Training Center, the Lacob Family Sports Medicine Center, and the orthopedic clinic at Lucile Packard Children’s Hospital.
