Designates second week of November of each year as "Urinary Incontinence Awareness Week" in New Jersey.
This bill designates the second week of November each year as "Urinary Incontinence Awareness Week" in New Jersey to increase public awareness of the condition. It does not change laws or allocate funding but instead encourages the Governor to issue an annual proclamation asking state officials, organizations, and citizens to observe the designated week. The resolution highlights that urinary incontinence affects millions of people, particularly women, older adults, and those with certain health conditions, and aims to reduce stigma surrounding the issue.
