NATIONAL DAY OF ENCOURAGEMENT
National Day of Encouragement is observed annually on September 12. This day is dedicated to uplifting people around us and making a positive impact.

HOW TO OBSERVE
Make deliberate acts of encouragement providing reassurance and inspiration to people around you. High five someone for a job well done. Take notice when a friend is getting close to a hard-earned goal, encouraging them to keep going. Send a card or give a call or text to a family member who may be struggling. Remind them how important they are to you. Use #NationalDayofEncouragement to share on social media.
