The ides of August are over a week away, but now’s the time for action. Renamed in 8 B.C.E. for the first emperor of the Roman Empire, August is one of the hottest months of the year. But here are some ways you can stay cool and celebrate in a caring way:
- It’s Cataract Awareness Month. Get your eyes checked.
-
It’s National Immunization Awareness Month. Make sure you’re up to date.
- It’s [Children's Eye Health and Safety Month][]. Get some sunglasses for your niece.
- It’s Psoriasis Awareness Month. Learn how you can be an advocate.
