A resolution expressing support for the designation of May 2025 as "Mental Health Awareness Month".

SRES 249 is a symbolic Senate resolution expressing support for designating May 2025 as "Mental Health Awareness Month." It does not create new laws or allocate funding but aims to raise public awareness about mental health challenges. The resolution emphasizes removing stigma, declares mental health a national priority, and encourages efforts to improve access to services and support for all populations, including children, veterans, and those affected by suicide. It specifically highlights concerns about social media's impact on youth mental health and the need for early intervention. This resolution serves as a non-binding statement of support, not a policy change.
