SPECIAL DAY/WEEK/MONTH: Recognizes June 4, 2025, as Opportunity Youth Day at the state capitol
HCR 79 is a symbolic concurrent resolution recognizing Wednesday, June 4, 2025, as "Opportunity Youth Day" at the Louisiana state capitol. It honors Louisiana's disconnected youth (ages 16-24 not in school or working) and the Louisiana Opportunity Youth Alliance (LOYAL), which advocates for this group. The resolution encourages Louisianians to support youth-serving organizations and provides an opportunity for youth and advocates to engage with officials in Baton Rouge. As a ceremonial resolution, it does not create new laws or directly affect policies or individuals.
