Every June, the community comes together to support those living with headache and migraine disease; and educate everyone about the significant impact of these disabling disorders.
Raising awareness and empowering advocacy about headache and migraine disease is critically important. Over 40 million in the U.S. have the quality of their lives impacted both personally and professionally. One in four U.S. households include someone living with migraine disease. Nine out of ten people with migraine reported they could not “function normally” during days in which a migraine strikes. Nearly 3 in 10 require bedrest.
Awareness proclamations can be obtained for almost anything but tend to range on topics anywhere from culture to medical or mental health. Proclamations can be requested at all levels of government – from city to county, from tribal to state, and even countrywide.
Proclamations are official announcements from government officials to bring the community’s attention to an important topic that a group of people want to bring awareness to and officially recognize, and combined with publicity on social media channels will elevate recognition and make a difference.

Manage migraine
talk to an expert
learn different types
What makes tension-type headache different from a migraine attack? What is cluster headache and how do you treat it? We understand it can be confusing! The National Headache Foundation has a number of informative resources to help you learn more!
Beyond June, and throughout the rest of 2025, National Headache Foundation will be designing and launching numerous campaigns and events to keep the momentum going from everyone’s June, 2025 daily efforts.
Looking forward, the journey continues. With each passing year, we grow stronger together. From grassroots advocacy to national recognition, our collective voice resonates louder than ever.
You are not alone
More than 40 million people in the United States live with migraine disease and a half million are diagnosed with Cluster Headache.
Yet those who have these diseases often feel isolated and alone. We want to raise awareness by sharing stories to show that if you have migraine or another headache disorder, you are not alone.
