What is The Monday Campaigns?
The Monday Campaigns is a non-profit public health initiative in association with Columbia Mailman School of Public Health, Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health and Maxwell School at Syracuse. Our goal is to help end chronic preventable disease by offering a weekly prompt that can support people in starting and sustaining healthy behaviors.

Why Monday?
Research conducted by Johns Hopkins indicates that the week is a critical unit of time in planning our lives and Monday has special significance as the beginning of the week. People view Monday as a day for a fresh start and a chance to set healthy intentions for the next 6 days. They’re more likely to start diets, exercise regimes, quit smoking and schedule doctor’s appointments on Monday than any other day. And they’re looking for help in setting and carrying out their healthy intentions for the week.
Who’s with us?
The Monday movement has grown to include an impressive array of government and non-profit organizations, businesses, schools and universities, communities and media outlets.
What do we offer?
We help organizations use Monday to increase the effectiveness of their own health initiatives. We do this by providing research, case studies, health-related content, marketing concepts and ready-to-scale programs. We don’t collect any fees or have licensing requirements. Our sole objective is to help organizations leverage Monday to end chronic preventable disease in the U.S.
