​

1. Support the overall goals and objectives of the Virginia Athletic Trainers' Association

2. Serve the athletic trainers of Virginia who practice in the collegiate setting

3. Promote and enhance athletic training in the college/university setting in the state of Virginia

4. Identify and address issues related to the health and safety of intercollegiate student-athletes
