American Indian Cancer Foundation’s (AICAF’s) #TurquoiseThursday campaign begins in January

Join the Fight: Unveiling AICAF’s Upcoming #TurquoiseThursday Campaign 

As we stand on the brink of a new year, AICAF’s is excited to announce their upcoming #TurquoiseThursday Campaign, a rallying call to unite, inspire, and make a meaningful impact in the fight against cervical cancer. 

Campaign Kick-off: [January 1, 2024] – [January 31, 2024] 

Mark your calendars because January is cervical cancer awareness month. The campaign will span the entire month of January, and we invite each and every one of you to be an active participant in the events, activities, and initiatives that will unfold. 

How You Can Get Involved: 

• Wear Turquoise: Wear turquoise clothing and/or jewelry to raise awareness about cervical cancer screening and early detection in AI/AN communities. Invite friends, family, and coworkers at your organization or business to wear turquoise. 
• Share: Share a picture of yourself wearing turquoise on social media and use the hashtag #TurquoiseThursday. Tell your friends and family about Turquoise Thursday. 
• Get Screened: Women should start screening at 21 years. Take the Turquoise Thursday Screening Pledge to discuss cervical cancer screening options with your healthcare provider. Schedule your next Pap test or HPV test. 
• Learn: Engage with us the entire month of January as we share culturally tailored cervical cancer screening resources, toolkits, and webinars. Stay informed about cervical cancer, screening, and early detection. Share our education and awareness materials with your relatives.
