Relative to Cervical Cancer Screening and Awareness Month.

This measure would designate the month of January every year as Cervical Cancer Screening and Awareness Month in the State of California. The measure would encourage all Californians, including the State Department of Public Health and the State Department of Health Care Services, to observe the month and observe appropriate activities, promote screening and educational outreach to women and the medical community, and develop programs to raise awareness about the causes of, symptoms of, and screening for, cervical cancer.
