Memorializing Governor Kathy Hochul to proclaim September 15-21, 2025, as Diaper Need Awareness Week in the State of New York

This resolution requests Governor Hochul to declare September 15-21, 2025, as "Diaper Need Awareness Week" in New York. It does not create new laws or change policies, but asks the Governor to formally recognize the issue of diaper need - where families struggle to afford sufficient diapers for infants and toddlers. The resolution highlights that diaper need affects one in two mothers, costs up to 6% of a minimum wage worker's salary, and can prevent children from accessing childcare. It focuses solely on raising public awareness, not on funding or policy changes, and references community organizations already distributing diapers to low-income families.
