April is International Humor Month – 30 Days to Laugh, Learn, and Lead with Humor

ROCKFORD, Ill. - March 28, 2025 - PRLog -- The Goals of International Humor Month
Led by the Association for Applied and Therapeutic Humor (AATH), this month-long initiative is designed to:

• Spread the word about the incredible power of humor to connect, heal, and inspire.
• Spotlight the great work humorists, professionals, and everyday people are already doing to make the world a funnier place.
• Help everyone—yes, everyone—build their skill of humor, one laugh at a time.

A Legacy of Laughter
International Humor Month was originally founded by Larry Wilde and, for years, was passionately carried forward by Steve Wilson, whose vision helped establish it as a cornerstone of the global humor community. Now, as Steve graciously passes the baton, AATH is honored to carry this legacy forward with a new chapter of celebration, education, and inspiration. At the helm is Andrew Tarvin, Director of International Humor Month, TEDx speaker with over 15 million views, and CEO of Humor That Works. For the past 15 years, Andrew has helped thousands of professionals unlock their sense of humor to achieve better results, proving that humor isn't just fun, it's functional.
