SJR 114 New Jersey Senate · 2026-2027 Regular Session

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

This bill designates July of each year as "Self-Care Awareness Month" in New Jersey to promote awareness of healthy lifestyle habits and wellness practices. The resolution requires the Governor to issue an annual proclamation encouraging public officials and residents to observe the month with appropriate activities and programs. The bill defines self-care as making healthy lifestyle choices, practicing good hygiene, monitoring health, and knowing when to seek medical help, while also highlighting potential healthcare cost savings. This is a commemorative measure that raises awareness rather than implementing new regulations or funding programs.
