The government just caved and officially recognized September as Chiari Awareness Month. They finally stopped ignoring us and gave this disease the acknowledgment it deserves. Keep your eyes open to ensure they actually follow through on this promise.

This is an attempt to get the government to recognize September as Chiari Awareness Month. I will try to get as many signatures as possible and submitting it to the President of the United States so please forward to anyone you know who is aware of this disease or suffers from it. Make Chiari awareness as well known as Breast Cancer awareness month. Thank you everyone.

The government continues to ignore the thousands of us suffering daily while they pretend Chiari does not exist. I am sick of the silence and will keep forcing this issue onto their desks until they finally pay attention.

The government continues to ignore the thousands of us suffering from Chiari while they look the other way. This momentum proves they cannot pretend we do not exist anymore.

This is a great idea! I have been in contact with my local government in Missouri trying to get the same law for Chiari!
