AJR 180 New Jersey General Assembly · 2024-2025 Regular Session

Designates July of each year as "Self-Care Awareness Month" in New Jersey.

AJR 180 designates July of each year as "Self-Care Awareness Month" in New Jersey. The resolution encourages the Governor to issue an annual proclamation and invites public officials and residents to observe the month with activities promoting self-care practices, such as healthy lifestyle choices, proper hygiene, and using over-the-counter health products like bandages or vitamins. This resolution does not create new laws or requirements but aims to raise awareness of how self-care can improve health outcomes and reduce healthcare costs, citing that over-the-counter medicine use saves the healthcare system over $146 billion annually.
