National Myositis Awareness Day

Help educate the public and healthcare community about myositis!

The Myositis Association and its members worked to have the U.S. House of Representatives designate September 21st as National Myositis Awareness Day. This day has been recognized through a  Congressional resolution to bring awareness and national attention to this disease.

Recognition of this day through working at the state and local levels is another way to draw attention to myositis. We have gathered resources and information to help you with this effort:

•  Sample letter to your elected officials
•  Wording from previous proclamations
