There’s a
month for just about every health advocacy issue. November shares a number of
observances including American Diabetes Month and National Alzheimer’s
Awareness Month. The designations bring awareness to each issue and aid in
fundraising goals. Some issues, like breast cancer awareness in October are
typically on people’s minds year round. However, people who are not directly
affected sometimes forget about other health issues. The observances jog
memories and make sure the victims, survivors, and warriors are not dismissed. There
will be events throughout the month for both events to focus the nation’s
attention on the problem.
