Dystonia Awareness - Say the Word

What is Dystonia Awareness? In the DLM podcast for the last two months we have discussed this very important issue. It is so important, in fact, that DLM has dedicated a column entirely to awareness efforts.

Not only will this column focus on the efforts of those within the community, but this column will become the official home for our Say The Word campaign. In the future you can check back for links and free materials.

Say The Word is designed to offer encouragement, advocacy tools and promotional materials to the average person living with Dystonia or to other interested health activists.

What is Awareness? Merriam Webster defines 'aware' as "having or showing realization, perception, or knowledge".

Say The Word will endeavor to increase identification of Dystonia by the public and medical professionals. Say The Word strives to improve the widespread perception of those persons living with Dystonia. Say the Word will provide information to the public as well as those living with Dystonia.

Is your interest peaked? I hope so.

Join DLM, other active Dystonia Advocates and the wonderful Dystonia organizations in the campaign to raise awareness about Dystonia. If you don't know where to start, check out our podcasts, then Say The Word(Dystonia)!

Remember: Individuals can and will continue to do great things within the Dystonia community!
