AJR 141 New Jersey General Assembly · 2026-2027 Regular Session

Designates March 1 of each year as "Endometriosis Awareness Day" in New Jersey.

AJR 141 designates March 1 of every year as "Endometriosis Awareness Day" in New Jersey. The resolution aims to raise public awareness about endometriosis, a chronic condition affecting approximately 1 in 10 menstruating individuals worldwide, which causes severe pain and can lead to fertility challenges. It requires the Governor to issue an annual proclamation encouraging public officials and citizens to observe the day through awareness activities. This symbolic designation aligns with national Endometriosis Awareness Month in March but does not create new laws or funding.
