May is Lupus Awareness Month
Lupus Awareness Month, May, is the time we all come together to educate others and raise awareness about lupus—with friends and family, at work, in our neighborhoods, and even officials in the City, State and Federal government. Take part in this opportunity to share the facts, and make a difference for all those impacted by Lupus. On this page we have our Lupus Awareness Calendar, Lupus Awareness Tools, including Social Media Posts, Lupus Face Sheets, Video Resources and Sample Emails and Letters to help you help you become an advocate for lupus awareness!
Show Your Support—just choose something from our awareness calendar each day this month!
