Designates the month of September as "Sickle Cell Awareness Month" in Missouri
HCR 3 is a symbolic resolution designating September as "Sickle Cell Awareness Month" in Missouri. It does not create new laws or funding but formally recognizes an existing national observance to highlight sickle cell disease and trait. The resolution encourages Missourians to participate in awareness events and learn about screenings, particularly noting Missouri's long-standing newborn screening program for the condition. This procedural resolution has no direct policy impact beyond raising public visibility.
