Monthly Awareness

February is Turner Syndrome Awareness Month, a time dedicated to raising awareness and understanding of this rare condition that affects people assigned female at birth. Turner Syndrome occurs when one of the X chromosomes is missing or partially missing, leading to a variety of developmental, medical, and social differences. Awareness and education during this month help families, friends, and allies better support those living with Turner Syndrome.

January marks Alzheimer’s Awareness Month, a time to raise understanding of Alzheimer’s disease, dementia, and the realities faced by both those living with these conditions and the caregivers who support them.
