EPA supports local programs working to help people in their communities bring asthma under control. The first step is raising awareness throughout communities that asthma is a serious, sometimes life-threatening chronic disease that can be controlled. Though May is Asthma Awareness Month, don't wait to take action - you can make every month Asthma Awareness Month.
