HB 363 Tennessee House · 114th Regular Session (2025-2026)

Holidays and Days of Special Observance - As enacted, designates the month of November as "Diabetes Awareness Month." - Amends TCA Title 15, Chapter 2, Part 1.

HB 363 designates the month of November as "Diabetes Awareness Month" in Tennessee, as part of the state's official calendar of special observances under Tennessee Code Annotated. The bill amends Title 15, Chapter 2, Part 1 to formally recognize this observance annually, without creating new requirements or funding for diabetes-related programs. It directly affects state government operations by adding this designation to official state observances. This is a symbolic, non-binding measure focused solely on raising public awareness, not on implementing new policies or services.
