National Natural Family Planning Awareness Week

July 20 - 26, 2025

“Pursue a lasting love ...MARRIAGE. Create hope for the future! Natural Family Planning: Supporting God's gifts of love and life in marriage” is the theme of this year’s national Natural Family Planning Awareness Week.

As an educational campaign of the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops (USCCB), “NFP Week” celebrates God’s design for married love and the gift of life and raises awareness about Natural Family Planning (NFP) methods.

The dates of Natural Family Planning Awareness Week are July 20 - 26, 2025. These dates highlight the anniversary of the papal encyclical Humanae vitae (July 25) which articulates Catholic beliefs about human sexuality, marriage, conjugal love and responsible parenthood.

We ask each of you to prayerfully consider promoting the beauty of Humanae vitae’s teaching within your parish using resources and events below. To learn more about Natural Family Planning, register for a class, or find a teacher, visit www.aod.org/nfp.
