Designates May of each year as "Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome and Hypermobility Spectrum Disorders Awareness Month."
AJR 227 designates every May as "Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome and Hypermobility Spectrum Disorders Awareness Month" in New Jersey. The resolution aims to increase public awareness of these genetic connective tissue disorders, which cause symptoms like joint hypermobility, chronic pain, fragile skin, and fatigue. It encourages research and support for affected individuals by formally recognizing the condition during this designated month. The bill does not create new laws but promotes community education and resource connection.
