AJR 92 New Jersey General Assembly · 2024-2025 Regular Session

Designates last day of February of each year as "Rare Disease Awareness Day" in New Jersey.

AJR 92 designates the last day of February each year as "Rare Disease Awareness Day" in New Jersey. The resolution requests the Governor to issue an annual proclamation encouraging public awareness of rare diseases, support for affected patients and families, and promotion of research into rare diseases. This procedural resolution does not create new laws or funding but aims to highlight rare diseases - defined as conditions affecting fewer than 200,000 people in the U.S. - which collectively impact nearly 30 million Americans, including thousands in New Jersey.
