It is September 26. It is sponsored / organized by the <a href="http://www.marf.org/" rel="nofollow">Mesothelioma Applied Research Foundation</a> (MARF), often just called The Meso Foundation.Wendi LewisMon, 03 Mar 2008 15:53:24 -0000http://www.mymeso.org/2008/02/27/action-mesothelioma-day-2008/#comment-2106943There does not seem to be a Mesothelioma Awareness Day in the U.S. However, April 1 is Asbestos Awareness Day, and April 1-7 is Asbestos Awareness Week. There is a conference held each year, presented by the Asbestos Disease Awareness Organization (ADAO), which is based in California. The conference is in Detroit, Michigan this year, March 28-30. There is a post about it on this site, and registration deadline is today. I'm working to establish an Asbestos Awareness Day event in Montgomery, Alabama, since that's where I'm based, on April 1, to coincide with the national awareness day, and I'll be posting more information about that in the coming weeks. Thank you for reading, and continue to check back for new information. I'll also be attending the ADAO conference and posting from there!WendiThu, 28 Feb 2008 12:23:36 -0000http://www.mymeso.org/2008/02/27/action-mesothelioma-day-2008/#comment-2106942Great website. Is there a mesothelioma day in the US? Thanks!KirstenThu, 28 Feb 2008 12:14:27 -0000
