Memorializing Governor Kathy Hochul to proclaim March 2026, as Developmental Disabilities Awareness Month in the State of New York

This bill asks the Governor of New York to officially recognize March 2026 as Developmental Disabilities Awareness Month. It directly affects the state government by requesting a formal proclamation from Governor Kathy Hochul. The resolution highlights the importance of raising awareness about developmental disabilities and promoting inclusion for the approximately 130,000 New Yorkers with such conditions. It does not create new laws or funding but serves as a symbolic gesture to encourage community recognition and support for individuals with developmental disabilities.
