Please provide data as a data step for this example.

Also, include anything you've tried to plot this so far.

Looks like a vertical version of the Likert graph.

Transpose the data so you have a single "month" variable to reference as the axis variable in a VBAR statement in proc sgplot.

data have;
input study_name $ June July August;
datalines;
A 20 16 39
B 18 18 6
C 19 1 5
D 87 65 115
E 63 55 62
F 81 104 87
G 73 19 49
H 189 69 79
I 28 6 8
J 87 83 52
K 0 0 0
L 0 0 0
M 4 1 1
N 1 0 2
O 212 159 304
;

proc transpose data=have out=trans
   name=Month;
by study_name;
var June July August;
run;

Proc sgplot data=trans;
   vbar month / response=col1 group=study_name;
run;

The get the legend entries to read "1 A" either make a variable with that value and transpose using it or create a format to show values of Study_name that way and apply the format in the Proc. Assign labels to Col1 and month to get nicer text or suppress entirely with XAXIS and YAXIS statements.
