TRISOMY AWARENESS MONTH
This bill declares March 2024 as Trisomy Awareness Month in Illinois to encourage public understanding of genetic conditions where cells contain an extra chromosome. It defines trisomy as a chromosomal abnormality that can lead to various syndromes, such as Down syndrome, and notes that many cases result in miscarriage. The resolution urges citizens to learn about these conditions and directs a copy of the document to the Support Organization For Trisomy (SOFT) as a gesture of respect.
