Join a Powerful Movement to Shine a Spotlight on Autoimmune Disease across the Country!
This March, we’re rallying advocates nationwide to help declare Autoimmune Awareness Month in as many municipalities as possible. Together, we can create a coast-to-coast wave of awareness, recognition, and hope.
Why Proclamations Matter
A proclamation is more than just words on paper—it’s a public declaration of support that raises awareness and starts important conversations in your community. These proclamations put autoimmune diseases on the map (literally!) and show individuals living with autoimmune conditions that their stories matter.
When local, county, and state governments officially recognize March as Autoimmune Awareness Month, it signals a commitment to advancing education, research, and understanding. Each proclamation helps:
- Raise Awareness: Educate the public about the impact of autoimmune diseases.
- Support Advocacy: Encourage better healthcare access and funding for research.
- Amplify Voices: Highlight the personal stories of those living with autoimmune diseases.
It’s Easy to Make an Impact! Here’s How:
We’ve made it simple to get involved with our Proclamation Toolkit—everything you need to take action is right at your fingertips.
- Contact Your Local Government Officials
Use our pre-written email template in the toolkit below or use our online tool to reach out to your township, city, county, or state officials. Ask them to proclaim March as Autoimmune Awareness Month in your area. - Pick Up Your Proclamation
