Memorializing Governor Kathy Hochul to proclaim May 2026, as Foster Care Month in the State of New York
This bill directs the Governor of New York to officially designate May 2026 as Foster Care Month in the state. The resolution aims to recognize and honor the efforts of foster parents, volunteers, and child welfare professionals who support youth in the foster care system. By issuing a formal proclamation, the legislature highlights the importance of these children and encourages community awareness during the month. The measure does not create new laws or funding but serves as a symbolic gesture to promote the well-being of the state's foster youth.
