CLF HelpLine for Assumption University Alumni

The CLF HelpLine is a free resource for Assumption University alumni who are fighting long-term symptoms of concussion, CTE, and related neurological disorders.

This resource referral service is provided with support and input from Assumption University Athletics and from The Sidey Fund, a nonprofit founded in honor of Matt Sidebottom ’11, who passed away in 2021. CLF ambassadors from the Sidey Fund include Assumption Football Class of 2011 alumni Ryan Crowley, Mark Gately, Ethan Maxfield, and Steve Travaglini, who dedicate their involvement to the memory of their Greyhounds teammate.

Submit a CLF HelpLine request below for nearby medical provider recommendations, peer support connections, or symptom and treatment information. We’ll respond with resources within 3 business days.

If you’re experiencing a medical or mental health emergency, please go to the nearest emergency room or call the Suicide & Crisis Lifeline by dialing 988.
