Myositis Awareness Month 2026

May is Myositis Awareness Month! It’s a time for the myositis community to raise our collective voices and let the world know what this rare disease is all about. It’s TMA’s mission to support those who live with myositis and their care partners by bringing awareness, sharing resources and education, sharing strategies for advocacy, and building a stronger and more connected myositis community.
TMA’s special programming is centered on Diagnosis Days for learning and connecting by sub-type of myositis, plus incredible community-wide events. Plus! Powerful resources to help you tell your story, support each other, and expand the public’s understanding of myositis. In doing so, you can shorten the wait between symptoms and diagnosis. Ultimately, your efforts will speed up the search for better treatments and a cure.
With your help, we can educate your community…and the world!
