August is National Immunization Awareness Month

National Immunization Awareness Month (NIAM) is an annual observance held in August to highlight the importance of vaccination for people of all ages. Together, we can help raise awareness about the importance of vaccination and encourage people to talk to a healthcare provider they trust about staying up to date on their vaccinations.

National Immunization Awareness Month (NIAM) is celebrated every August to highlight the importance of vaccines for people of all ages. NIAM aims to raise awareness of how vaccines can help prevent serious diseases and protect people from outbreaks. Vaccines are one of the most successful and cost-effective public health tools for preventing disease and death. They can also help prevent the spread of diseases to others, especially those who are most vulnerable, such as infants, the elderly, and people with weakened immune systems

August is National Breastfeeding Month — a month dedicated to advancing advocacy, protection, and promotion of breastfeeding to ensure that all families have the opportunity to breastfeed.
