June is National Migraine Awareness Month!!

June 1 marks the kickoff of Migraine Awareness Month (#NMAM): Help Make Migraines Visible. The National Headache Foundation is the world's largest voluntary organization for the support of individuals with headaches. Last year, they were able to achieve over 90 million “media exposures”: a measure of the number of times the migraine message was presented to readers, viewers, or listeners of public media. This year we hope to do even more to help you and others experiencing headaches to better know and understand how to manage them.

If you would like to join the event via Facebook, follow this link. If you would like a list of the blogging prompts, they're available through this link.

Migraine.com has published a Twitter challenge too, so if anyone uses Twitter or Facebook or other social media platform that utilizes status updates, they have a bunch for you to use and schedule for coverage all month long! Hashtag for the tweet challenge is #NMAMTC
