NCSH Quarterly Social Media Campaign: August-October 2025

This campaign focuses on why it’s worth it to talk openly about your feelings, wants, and needs—and how to do so with confidence. These conversations are key to building trust, meeting your expectations, and feeling understood in any relationship.

We encourage you to share this campaign with fellow educators, advocates, and your organization’s social media team. When you post our content, please be sure to tag us: @NationalCoalitionSexualhealth on Instagram, @NCSH_ on X/Twitter, @TheNCSH on Bluesky, and @NationalCoalitionforSexualHealth on LinkedIn and Facebook!

The campaign contains three parts:

Part 1: Learn why conversations about feelings, wants, and needs matter and how to approach them with confidence.

Part 2: This section features sample social media copy supporting key health observances and holidays that will be taking place over the next three months.

Part 3: This section includes social media graphics to accompany Parts 1 and 2. Part 3 contains links to downloadable graphics which are designed for Instagram but can be reformatted for other social media sites if desired.

The key observances for this quarter include:

• National Immunization Awareness Month (August)
• National Health Center Week (August 3-9)
• World Sexual Health Day (September 4)
• National HIV/AIDS and Aging Awareness Day (September 18)
• World Contraception Day (September 26)
• National Gay Men’s HIV/AIDS Awareness Day (September 27)
• National Domestic Violence Awareness Month (October)
• Health Literacy Month (October)
• National Latinx AIDS Awareness Day (October 15)

Here's a sample of what you can find in the full campaign: 

• Bringing up your feelings in a relationship can feel scary. You might worry about upsetting your partner or rejection. But a good partner will want to listen and understand how you feel. Get tips for sharing your feels: bit.ly/FeelingsWantsNeeds #OwnTheAwk
• Asking for what you want starts with believing that you matter. We all deserve to feel great about ourselves, especially around our partner(s). Embracing who you are isn’t always easy, but everyone can get better at #selflove. Learn more: https://fiveactionsteps.org/1/
• Remember: no one is a mind reader. Being upfront about what you want and need can prevent headaches for you and your partner(s). And help make sure your needs are met. It’s better to share. Learn more about #HealthyRelationships: https://bit.ly/406WngL
