Add screening awareness to Colorectal Cancer Awareness Month
This bill proposes renaming an existing month to "Colorectal Cancer Screening and Awareness Month" to emphasize the importance of early detection. The change directly affects public health messaging and state-recognized observances related to colorectal cancer. By amending the relevant code section, the legislation updates the official title to include "screening" alongside "awareness." This procedural update aims to highlight the critical role of screening in preventing and treating the disease.
