SCR 77 California Senate · 2025-2026 Regular Session

Relative to Service Dog Appreciation Month.

SCR 77 designates September 2025 as Service Dog Appreciation Month in California. This symbolic resolution, proposed by the state legislature, does not create new laws or impose requirements. It directs state agencies to recognize and promote awareness of service dogs during that month, primarily affecting public awareness efforts rather than individuals or organizations. The measure has no direct regulatory impact but aims to foster community appreciation for service dog teams.
