National Midwifery Week Planning Kit

National Midwifery Week will be here October 3 - 9, 2010 and regardless of your communications objective - be it a full-blown trumpeting of the entire National Midwifery Week or a day or two of selected activities, there are myriad of ways to promote your practice and inform your community about midwifery.

We urge you to actively promote Midwifery Week and share the ideas, plans, and templates contained within this packet:
Twenty Things You Can Do | News Release Kit | Media Advisory Kit | Public Service Announcements
Exhibiting Tips | Develop Your Own Exhibit | Mayor's Proclamation | Find Your Local Media Contacts

We have prepared this simple guide to provide you with the basic tools necessary to plan, stage, and publicize your chapter's and practice's events for the week.
The opportunities in the planning guide are not a task list; they are  suggestions for making your effort and the efforts of your chapter and practice both fun and rewarding.

If you need help or have questions, contact pr@acnm.org

Good luck and Happy National Midwifery Week!
