Alopecia Areata Awareness Month

During September, the NAAF community amplifies its efforts to increase awareness, reduce stigma, and empower those living with alopecia areata locally and nationally. Here are just a few of the ways you can help:

Join the Walk For Alopecia Movement

Let’s DO something about alopecia areata! Walk with us at the 4th Annual Walk For Alopecia® Presented by Pfizer on Saturday, September 26* in a community near you to create hope, build community, and drive progress! Register today for the world’s biggest alopecia areata fundraising and awareness campaign.

Join us at one of our Flagship Sites in Boston, Philadelphia, and San Francisco, 45+ Volunteer-Led Community Sites, or Walk Where You Are as a team or individual in your neighborhood.
