A Resolution recognizing the month of September 2025 as "Suicide Prevention Month" in Pennsylvania.
This resolution (SR 138) is a non-binding statement by the Pennsylvania Senate recognizing September 2025 as "Suicide Prevention Month" within the state. It does not create new laws, programs, or funding; it solely serves to symbolically acknowledge the issue and align with the national observance. The resolution highlights suicide statistics and the National Alliance on Mental Illness theme for awareness, but the designation itself has no direct policy impact on individuals or services. It affects the state government's official recognition of the month, not Pennsylvanians' access to mental health resources.
