Memorializing Governor Kathy Hochul to proclaim May 2024, as Speech-Language-Hearing Month in the State of New York

This bill asks the Governor to officially recognize May 2024 as Speech-Language-Hearing Month in New York State. The resolution aims to raise public awareness about the importance of communication health and the work of speech, language, and hearing professionals. It does not create new laws or change funding but serves to honor the field and encourage communities to value effective communication. The measure also highlights efforts by local organizations to promote understanding of these health issues through events like poster contests.
