Awareness

The symptoms of osteoporosis often are not apparent until a bone breaks, so increasing public awareness of osteoporosis and bone health is essential. NOF's awareness efforts include a wide range of public information programs, publications and outreach activities that are dedicated to diminishing the scope and burden of this disease. NOF is committed to helping people of all ages and backgrounds maintain active, healthy, independent lives.
