Now is the time to start thinking about what each of us as individuals and organizations can do in May for MCS Awareness and Education Month.  It's only 4 months away an it often takes time to contact politicians and community leaders to coordinate events. So, it is a good time to think about what we'd each like to do and create a plan for when to launch it into motion.  Last year, MCS America published an Event Planning Kit.  This kit is full of ideas for ways to promote awareness, including:

Governor Proclamations
School Programs
Health Providers
Library Displays
State Capitol Events
Press Releases
Media Coverage
A Handy MCS Fact Sheet
Real Life Examples of Prior Events

The 2010 kit can be downloaded from:

Even putting a few brochures up on bulletin boards when you visit medical providers or head out to shop is helpful.
  
Good luck with all your efforts... no matter how big or small!
