SCR 182 Delaware Senate · 153rd General Assembly (2025-2026)

RECOGNIZING MAY 2026 AS "FOSTER CARE MONTH" IN THE STATE OF DELAWARE.

This bill designates May 2026 as "Foster Care Month" throughout the State of Delaware. It serves as a symbolic recognition rather than a law that changes funding, mandates specific programs, or alters existing regulations. The measure directly affects the state government by establishing an official theme for the month, though it does not impose new obligations on foster care agencies or families.
