AJR 86 New Jersey General Assembly · 2024-2025 Regular Session

Designating fourth Wednesday in May of each year as "Crisis Professionals Day."

AJR 86 designates the fourth Wednesday in May each year as "Crisis Professionals Day" in New Jersey. The resolution requests the Governor issue an annual proclamation recognizing this day to honor crisis professionals who assist individuals during mental health crises. These professionals, trained to de-escalate crises using empathy and support, provide critical services to vulnerable New Jersey residents. The bill has no fiscal impact and serves solely as a ceremonial recognition of their work.
