Designates October 11 of each year as "Perimenopause Day" in New Jersey.
AJR 125 designates October 11 of each year as "Perimenopause Day" in New Jersey. The bill aims to raise awareness about perimenopause - a natural transition period before menopause involving symptoms like irregular periods, hot flashes, and mood changes - and combat stigma around it. It directs the Governor to issue an annual proclamation encouraging public observance of the day through educational activities. This is a ceremonial resolution with no new laws, regulations, or funding, aligning with the existing global observance on October 11.
