Proclamation requests are a way to bring public attention to rare conditions and diseases, It is a free and easy way to request a day of recognition for those affected and helps to raise awareness. States usually have a process on how a Proclamation can be requested, which can be found on the state website. (Please note that states may change these websites and guidelines at any time.) A Proclamation Request usually includes "WHEREAS" text, which will be included in the proclamation. We have written a suggested "WHEREAS" text, included on this page, to help with your request. Please feel free to customize it however you would like. Adding personal experiences and stories can help communicate why a proclamation is important to you!
