Movember in LKR-H: More Than Just a Mustache – It's About Men’s Health This Movember, we focused on raising awareness about a critical aspect of men's health – early detection and prevention. As part of our campaign, we invited male colleagues to participate in PSA testing, an important step in monitoring prostate health. We’re proud to share that more than 150 participants took this proactive step toward their well-being. To further amplify the message, we turned awareness into action through a fun and meaningful initiative – a mustache-growing challenge! Participants grew mustaches to spark conversations and rally support for this cause. Let’s continue to raise awareness and encourage men to prioritize their health – because Movember is about more than a mustache. It's about making a difference. #Movember #MensHealth #PSATesting #Awareness

🌟 Movember: Time for Men to Talk 🌟 The staff at JHS are growing their Mos! This Movember, let’s make a difference together. 💙 We’re not just growing moustaches—we’re growing conversations about men’s mental health and raising awareness for prostate and testicular cancer. These are critical issues that deserve our attention, and the first step is breaking the silence. 💬 Why talk? Because it’s OK to not be OK. Because expressing your feelings is a sign of strength, not weakness. Because no man should feel alone in his struggles. When we talk, we show each other that we care, that we’re listening, and that support is always available. This Movember, let’s remind men everywhere that it’s not just about health—it’s about hope. 👨👦👦 Join the movement: 🌱 Grow your mo. 🤝 Reach out to a friend. 🗣 Start a conversation. If you want to buy a badge to support the cause please see Mr Parsad. Together, we can make a lasting impact. #Movember #MensMentalHealth #ItsOkToNotBeOk #TimeToTalk

𝐌𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐦𝐛𝐞𝐫 𝐌𝐚𝐭𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐬: 𝐋𝐞𝐭’𝐬 𝐓𝐚𝐥𝐤 𝐀𝐛𝐨𝐮𝐭 𝐌𝐞𝐧’𝐬 𝐇𝐞𝐚𝐥𝐭𝐡 As we leave Pink October behind, we are reminded of how important it is to give equal attention to Movember - a month dedicated not only growing moustaches/beards but, more importantly, to raising awareness about men's health issues that too often go unspoken. Prostate cancer, testicular cancer, mental health challenges and suicide prevention are real and pressing issues that affect men across all ages and backgrounds. These conditions can deeply impact individuals and families, with effects that reach far beyond the personal level and extend into our workplaces and communities. Working in PR and communications, especially with health institutions, has taught me how essential it is to break the silence around these topics. We often see a surge in engagement and support for Pink October, and yet conversations around Movember are comparatively rare. But awareness is the first step towards action, and every conversation we start, every bit of awareness we raise, has the power to change lives. This month, let’s do more... Let’s educate ourselves and those around us about the importance of men’s health. Let’s make sure men know they don’t have to face these challenges alone. #Movember #MensHealth #Awareness #PRandCommunications

💚 Dear Lyme Warriors, We NEED YOUR HELP…. After we entered the tick space with our new tick remover tool, we weren’t prepared for the number of people who reached out to us asking for help and guidance around the topic of Lyme disease, education, and awareness. It was evident there was a real lack of viable resources that weren't tarnished with misinformation and individuals taking advantage of others; even our own community didn’t know where to turn or who to trust. As part of our commitment to sharing only factual, transparent, and accurate information directly from world-leading experts on the front line through our Guardians Against Ticks Initiative, we are now summoning our own community and beyond to help give back in a creative and free way. Global Lyme Alliance offers a free mentor/mentee program that is an incredible resource for helping people or their loved ones who are dealing with Lyme disease. What we are looking for: 1) Men or women who have been through their own personal Lyme journey and would be willing to participate in the Global Lyme Alliance's Mentor/Mentee program to be strategically paired with someone who needs support. (This is a free program) (*Mentors who are men are desperately needed, as there is a group of male mentees already looking for support.) 2) Anyone who is going through their own Lyme disease journey and is looking for free resources or support. If this sounds like you, please click here https://rb.gy/9jnu64 to sign up as a mentor, and you will be connected with the Global Lyme Alliance for the next steps. The only way to make change is to band together, keep everything transparent, and help each other where we can. 💚 #BugBiteThing #GlobalLymeAlliance #PeerMentor #LymeDiseaseSupport #TickBorneIllness #CommunitySupport #GuardiansAgainstTicks #LymeStrong #TogetherWeHeal

#LetsTalkAboutHD with Molly Kokesh and the Rocky Mountain Chapter Why celebrating hope is so important in Colorado and beyond! Spring in the Mountain West feels like a series of stops and starts - 70 degrees, then 6 inches of snow; buds on trees, followed by frozen tomato plants. Every week, there is hope that winter is behind us and an equal reminder that it is not just yet. Following research for effective treatments for Huntington's disease feels much the same way. Some years bring wins - sometimes big - while others bring significant disappointment. But "where there is hope, there is life." That is what the Celebration of Hope is all about. The focus is not on what this devastating disease is or isn't, but on how our families are strong, resilient, caring, and bold. It is a celebration of the strength of HD families. I look forward to it every year, and, now, so do many of my family members and friends. When we come together as an HD community to celebrate the progress we've made, the community we've built, and the hope we have for tomorrow, we grow more hope. If you are in the state of Colorado this weekend, join Molly and the Rocky Mountain Chapter to raise a glass - or a fork - to our past, our present, and our future.

𝙒𝙃𝘼𝙏 𝙄𝙁 𝙂𝙍𝙊𝙒𝙄𝙉𝙂 𝘼 𝙈𝙊𝙐𝙎𝙏𝘼𝘾𝙃𝙀 𝘾𝙊𝙐𝙇𝘿 𝘾𝙃𝘼𝙉𝙂𝙀 𝙇𝙄𝙑𝙀𝙎? 🦋Today, I want to highlight an important initiative Movember. Each November, we come together to raise awareness about men's health, focusing on issues like prostate cancer, testicular cancer, and mental health. Movember is more than just growing a moustache, it's about encouraging conversations that can lead to positive change. 🦋Many men often neglect their health, thinking it’s a weakness to seek help. Movember challenges this notion. By encouraging growing a moustache, we can initiate discussions that promote awareness and action. It’s a simple yet impactful way to support those facing these health challenges and to remind everyone to take their health seriously. 🦋Many men struggle silently, feeling they have no one to turn to. This Movember, let’s pledge to be there for men ,to listen, and to foster a community where seeking help is encouraged. 🦋𝗛𝗼𝘄 𝘄𝗶𝗹𝗹 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗷𝗼𝗶𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗺𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗺𝗯𝗲𝗿 𝗺𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝘆𝗲𝗮𝗿 ? #prostatecancer #medelevatelinkedintribe #testicularcancer #mentalhealthawareness #movember
