Bill > SJR28

This Joint Resolution officially declares October of each year as "Eczema Awareness Month" in New Jersey, aiming to raise public understanding of eczema, a group of skin conditions that cause redness, itching, and inflammation, affecting millions nationwide and over 13% of New Jersey residents. The resolution calls upon the Governor to issue an annual proclamation and encourages public officials and citizens to participate in activities and programs that foster a greater sense of community and shared purpose for those living with eczema, acknowledging that while there is no cure, treatments exist to manage symptoms and that increased awareness can help address the condition's significant financial and emotional toll.
