Memorializing Governor Kathy Hochul to proclaim May 15 to June 15, 2025, as Tourette Syndrome Awareness Month in New York State

AI Summary

This resolution calls on Governor Kathy Hochul to officially proclaim May 15 to June 15, 2025, as Tourette Syndrome Awareness Month in New York State, aligning with the national awareness period designated by the Tourette Association of America (TAA). The resolution highlights the importance of raising public awareness about Tourette Syndrome, a neurological disorder that currently has no known cure and requires complex medical treatment. By acknowledging the social stigma surrounding the condition and emphasizing the potential for physical and psychological harm without early diagnosis and treatment, the resolution seeks to educate the public and promote understanding. The document specifically recognizes the TAA as the primary national organization dedicated to researching and addressing Tourette Syndrome, and it aims to increase awareness and support at local, state, and national levels. The resolution will be transmitted to Governor Hochul and serves as an official legislative recognition of the challenges faced by individuals with Tourette Syndrome.
