National Rehabilitation Awareness Week:
Celebrate the Power of Medical Rehab

In recognition of the benefits of rehabilitation and the successes of those who have received treatment through all forms rehabilitation, the National Rehabilitation Awareness Foundation (NRAF) recognizes National Rehabilitation Awareness Week during the third full week in September every year. This year, National Rehabilitation Awareness Week is September 18-24, 2023.

As part of the week, NRAF aims to:

  • educate people about the benefits and impact of rehabilitation,
  • develop programs which aim to increase opportunities for the nearly 50 million Americans with disabilities
  • and help those who are disabled live up to their fullest potential.

AMRPA looks forward to celebrating National Rehabilitation Awareness Week with daily activities on its social media channels (Twitter, Facebook and LinkedIn).
