Misophonia Matters May
A month for learning about misophonia, sharing educational material, and discussing accessibility in everyday settings.
What is Misophonia Matters May?
Misophonia Matters May is the IMF’s annual May awareness initiative. It provides a focused time to share information about misophonia, promote free educational resources, and consider the practical barriers faced in schools, workplaces, homes and other environments.
The IMF has previously held Misophonia Matters May educational conferences. Past events are part of the initiative’s history; this page does not announce a future conference or registration period.
