Multiple Sclerosis Awareness Week; recognize March 9 to 15, 2025
This resolution designates March 9-15, 2025, as Multiple Sclerosis Awareness Week at Georgia’s state capitol. It symbolically recognizes the impact of multiple sclerosis (affecting nearly 1 million people in the U.S.) and acknowledges the National Multiple Sclerosis Society’s work. The resolution encourages Georgians to learn about MS and support those affected by the disease and their families. It has no binding policy effects or funding changes - it is purely a ceremonial observance.
