SJR 1113 Tennessee Senate · 114th Regular Session (2025-2026)

Memorials, Recognition - Foster Grandparent Program of Greene County, 60th anniversary -

This bill is a Senate Joint Resolution that formally honors the Foster Grandparent Program of Greene County on its sixtieth anniversary. It does not create new laws or change existing policies but serves as a ceremonial recognition of the organization's six decades of volunteer service to children and families. The resolution acknowledges the program's role in connecting older adults with youth through mentorship and notes the standards and support provided to its volunteers. Ultimately, the measure results in a commendation from the Tennessee General Assembly rather than any substantive legislative action.
