J 1767 New York Senate · 2025 Regular Session

Memorializing Governor Kathy Hochul to proclaim May 2026, as Trauma-Informed Care Month in the State of New York

This bill asks the Governor of New York to officially designate May 2026 as Trauma-Informed Care Month. The resolution highlights how traumatic experiences and adverse childhood experiences impact public health and calls for greater awareness of trauma-informed approaches in government programs and communities. It does not create new laws or funding but serves as a symbolic recognition to promote understanding of trauma's effects and encourage state agencies to collaborate on implementing trauma-informed care principles. The bill is procedural in nature, focusing on awareness rather than policy changes.
