Health observances are days, weeks, or months devoted to promoting particular health concerns. This information will come in handy for community relations programs as well as employee appreciation events. Health professionals, teachers, hospital staff and community groups can use these special times to sponsor health promotion events, stimulate awareness of health risks or focus on disease prevention. Materials available from sponsoring organizations range from a single flyer to packets of promotional materials. To obtain materials, click the link in the "Info Here" column on the right. If you are looking for particular items not listed in this month, please click on the month that you are looking for in the index below. We hope you enjoy planning your year of health care awareness and education.  | Jan | Feb | Mar | Apr | May | Jun | Jul | Aug | Sep | Oct | Nov | Dec | Alphabetized List |   June Calendar  June Observances 2005 Dates 2006 Dates 2007 Dates 2008 Dates Info  Aphasia Awareness Month, National 1-30 1-30 1-30 1-30 click  ASK Day, National (1st day of summer) 21 21 21 21 click  Cancer Survivor's Day, National (1st Sunday) 5 4 3 1 click  Career Nurse Assistants Day (2nd Thursday) 9 8 14 10 click  Dystonia Awareness Week (1st Saturday + 8 days) 4-11 3-10 2-9 7-14 click  Eye Safety Awareness Week (9 days including July 5) 27-Jul 5 27-Jul 5 27-Jul 5 27-Jul 5 click Fireworks Safety Month  Jun 1 - Jul 4  Jun 1 - Jul 4 Jun 1 - Jul 4 Jun 1 - Jul 4 click  Headache Awareness Week, National (1st week) 5-11 4-10 3-9 1-7 click  Helen Keller Deaf-Blind Awareness Week (week including 27th) 26-Jul 2 25-Jul 1 24-30 22-28 click  Hernia Awareness Month 1-30 1-30 1-30 1-30    HIV Testing Day, National 27 27 27 27 click  Home Safety Month 1-30 1-30 1-30 1-30 click  Light the Night for Sight May - July May - July May - July May - July click  Men’s Health Week, National (2nd Monday) 13-19 12-18 11-17 9-15 click  Myasthenia Gravis Awareness Month 1-30 1-30 1-30 1-30 click  Safety Month, National 1-30 1-30 1-30 1-30 click  Scleroderma Awareness Month, National 1-30 1-30 1-30 1-30 click  Sobriety Checkpoint Week, National 30 - Jul 4 30 - Jul 4 30 - Jul 4 30 - Jul 4 click  Vision Research Month 1-30 1-30 1-30 1-30 click Please Note: To find dates associated with other months, please click on the month you seek below: | Jan | Feb | Mar | Apr | May | Jun | Jul | Aug | Sep | Oct | Nov | Dec | Alphabetized List | If you know the name of the health observance, or even part of the name, but you do not know what month it is in, you may wish to either use our Alphabetized List or the search engine below.            powered by
