By designating a specific day for awareness, advocates hope to increase understanding and support for individuals and families affected by AADC deficiency.

Overall, Bill 118 HRES 813 seeks to bring attention to a lesser-known medical condition and promote efforts to improve the lives of those living with AADC deficiency. It emphasizes the need for continued research, support, and advocacy to address the challenges faced by individuals with rare diseases like AADC deficiency.
