Coming Soon: May Health Observances
With more than a dozen health observances, May offers multiple opportunities to jumpstart your spring campaigns.
 
To help you get ready, we’ve put together a list of important May awareness events, accompanied by a selection of relevant health promotion materials.
It may be too early to predict what proms and graduations will look like this year, but young people still need trustworthy, non-judgmental information about substance misuse, sexual violence, and STI/HIV prevention and other issues. 
The pandemic has been especially challenging for older adults, making this awareness event more relevant than ever. To support your program, consider our pamphlet 100 Great Things About Growing Older.
The goals of this May 8-14 observance -- promoting mental health and preventing substance misuse -- take on added urgency as we grapple with the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Help address pandemic-related disruptions in health care with this heart-healthy event. Our pamphlet 9 Ways to Lower Your Risk of Stroke makes an effective addition to your outreach efforts.
Ashtrays adorned with fresh flowers are a common symbol of this May 31 event, which raises awareness about the dangers of using tobacco. This year’s theme: how tobacco harms the environment.
This event is both a celebration of the progress made in reducing teen birth rates in the U.S. as well as a call to eliminate continuing disparities. 
Here’s an opportunity to inspire anyone feeling cooped up and unmotivated to exercise during these challenging times.  
Support people with mental illness and their families with this observance, whose objectives include fighting stigma, providing support and educating the public. Our new pamphlet Mental Health and Stigma can help.
Help women and girls make their health a priority and practice good self-care with this week-long event.
This observance is designed to shed light on the hepatitis epidemic by raising awareness of viral hepatitis and encouraging priority populations to get tested. To reinforce your outreach efforts, check out our bestselling pamphlet Hepatitis B & C.
May is peak season for people with asthma and allergies, making this event the perfect time to educate patients, friends, family members and others about these conditions. 
Raise awareness about the impact of HIV among Asian and Pacific Islander communities with this May 19 observance.
With hot weather on the way, this May 31 event is a good time to remind people how to stay safe when temperatures soar. Supplement your outreach efforts with our pamphlet Extreme Heat: Tips for Staying Safe.
