SCR 195 Delaware Senate · 152nd General Assembly (2023-2024)

PROCLAIMING THE MONTH OF OCTOBER 2024 AS "DEPRESSION AWARENESS MONTH" IN THE STATE OF DELAWARE.

This bill officially designates October 2024 as "Depression Awareness Month" throughout the State of Delaware. It directly affects residents by encouraging the state to promote understanding of depression as a treatable medical condition rather than a personal weakness. The resolution includes a general encouragement for expanded efforts to inform Delawareans about depression awareness, but it does not create new funding, mandate specific programs, or alter existing laws.
