About The American Migraine Foundation

The American Migraine Foundation (AMF) is a non-profit organization dedicated to advancing research and awareness surrounding Migraine. This disabling disease impacts 36 million men, women and children in the United States. The AMF was founded in 2010 to provide access to information and resources for individuals living with Migraine and their loved ones. Working alongside the American Headache Society, the AMF’s mission is to mobilize a community for patient support and advocacy. As well as drive and support innovative research that will lead to improvement in the lives of individuals living with Migraine and other disabling diseases that cause severe head pain. 

AMF launched the Move Against Migraine initiative to help educate individuals about Migraine, as well as resources, such as information on treatment and experts.  

What is Move Against Migraine?

  • Move Against Migraine integrates advertising, public relations and social and digital media, and radio and television public service announcements.
