We seek a Presidential Proclamation proclaiming January as "Support Group Awareness Month"

We would be most grateful if you would please consider helping more Americans to become aware of the many different member-run support groups that are available to them in communities across the Nation. Self-help support groups are peer-run, community mutual aid groups that provide needed social support, practical information, education, and empowerment for those facing a wide variety of life hardships. Groups address almost every illness, disability, addiction, bereavement situation, parenting problem, caregiver concern, abuse, or other stressful life situation. Would you, therefore, please consider issuing a Presidential Proclamation proclaiming January as "Support Group Awareness Month"? It would help educate people to these neglected but helpful community resources.
