2022 Awareness Calendars


Do you know what awareness days/weeks/months you want to highlight this year?


It seems like every day we have some sort of awareness or themed “celebration” day. Everything from National Hot Dog Day or National Hairball Day (April 29th if anyone was wondering…) to Suicide Prevention Month and World Mental Health Day. Some of these “Holiday” themes are certainly quite silly, but others can be very pertinent to our industry. Celebrating months like Mental Health Awareness Month in May or Suicide Prevention Month in September can give you an opportunity to spread awareness in your community while promoting your programs services. Ideas like hosting a Mental Health Awareness event or coordinating with your local NAMI chapter to participate in fundraisers or walks can be very helpful in promoting your program.


All the “pertinent” awareness days for 2022 are provided below. Review them and pick which ones you would like to focus on. If you need help with ideas, I will be more than happy to assist.
