HOUSE RESOLUTION PROCLAIMING MARCH 20, 2025, TO BE "ALZHEIMER'S AWARENESS DAY" IN THE STATE OF RHODE ISLAND

HR 6115 is a ceremonial resolution designating March 20, 2025, as "Alzheimer's Awareness Day" in Rhode Island. It does not create new laws or allocate funding but formally recognizes the impact of Alzheimer's disease through symbolic acknowledgment. The resolution highlights statewide statistics, including over 24,000 Rhode Islanders living with Alzheimer's and significant caregiver and economic burdens. It directs the Secretary of State to send a certified copy to the Alzheimer's Association, Rhode Island Chapter. This is a procedural resolution focused solely on raising awareness, not implementing policy changes.
