It’s HERE — the biggest and most important month of the year for MnCAN! June is National Aphasia Awareness Month, and throughout the month we are focused on spreading awareness, advocacy, education, and connection for individuals and families impacted by aphasia and primary progressive aphasia (PPA).
Why is this so important? Because aphasia and PPA are often invisible disabilities. In a fast-paced world, communication challenges can easily be misunderstood or overlooked. Yet millions of individuals are navigating language difficulties every single day — often feeling isolated, frustrated, or unseen.
At MnCAN, we believe education creates understanding, and understanding creates more welcoming, patient, accommodating, and supportive communities.
Will YOU help us this month by sharing awareness, learning more about aphasia and PPA, supporting our mission, and helping others feel seen, heard, and included? Together, we can make a meaningful difference.
Inspired by someone who has aphasia or PPA? Inspired by their care partner, by MnCAN, by one of our amazing group facilitators? Believe in our mission and vision?
