Senate Resolution No. 432

BY: Senator MAYER

 MEMORIALIZING Governor Kathy Hochul to proclaim
 May 15 to June 15, 2025, as Tourette Syndrome
 Awareness Month in New York State

 WHEREAS, It is the custom of this Legislative Body to recognize
official months that are set aside to increase awareness of serious
health issues that affect the lives of citizens of New York State; and

 WHEREAS, It is the sense of this Legislative Body to memorialize
Governor Kathy Hochul to proclaim May 15 to June 15, 2025, as Tourette
Syndrome Awareness Month in New York State, in conjunction with the
observance of National Tourette Syndrome Awareness Month; and

 WHEREAS, Lack of public awareness has increased the social stigma
attached to Tourette Syndrome; and

 WHEREAS, Early diagnosis and treatment of Tourette Syndrome can
prevent physical and psychological harm; and

 WHEREAS, There is no known cure for Tourette Syndrome and treatment
involves multiple medications and therapies with costs that can be
prohibitive; and

 WHEREAS, The Tourette Association of America (TAA) is the only
national not-for-profit membership organization dedicated to identifying
the cause, finding the cure, and controlling the effects of Tourette
Syndrome; and

 WHEREAS, The Tourette Association of America (TAA) has designated
May 15 to June 15 as National Tourette Syndrome Awareness Month, the
goal being to educate the public about the nature and effects of
Tourette Syndrome; and

 WHEREAS, It is imperative that there be greater awareness of this
serious health condition, and more must be done to increase activity at
the local, State and National levels; now, therefore, be it

 RESOLVED, That this Legislative Body pause in its deliberations to
memorialize Governor Kathy Hochul to proclaim May 15 to June 15, 2025,
as Tourette Syndrome Awareness Month in New York State, and to recognize
the impact Tourette Syndrome can have on people living with the
disorder, and the importance of an early diagnosis and proper treatment
of Tourette Syndrome; and be it further

 RESOLVED, That a copy of this Resolution, suitably engrossed, be
transmitted to The Honorable Kathy Hochul, Governor of the State of New
York.
