TMA\u2019s goal for 2025 is to secure a proclamation from each state legislature<\/strong>! Would you like to serve as a state coordinator for this effort? Please complete our online volunteer interest form<\/a>, and we\u2019ll contact you if your home state needs a coordinator.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We encourage everyone in the TMA community to pursue a proclamation from an office or institution in your hometown! County executives or commissioners, mayors, municipalities, counties, cities or towns can issue proclamations. <\/p>\n\n\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Download TMA’s Guide to Proclamations<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n

Tell TMA about the proclamation<\/a>, share a copy, and upload a photo when you receive the signed proclamation!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you have any questions or need help pursuing a state or local proclamation, please contact Rich DeAugustinis, TMA Board of Directors Vice Chair: <\/em>proclamations@myositis.org<\/em><\/a>.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
