August: Health Innovation Awareness Month
The Air Force is committed to the long-term health and vitality of our nation’s warfighters, their families, retirees, and civilians. An important part of maintaining readiness is taking measures to prevent diseases and injuries that pose a threat
to the Defense community. This month, the Air Force focuses on preventive health and encourages the Department of Defense community to become more proactive in protecting their health. To this end, we will spotlight TRICARE’s free preventive medical services as well as daily lifestyle changes that help prevent illness and ensure a medically ready and healthy military community.
