Memorializing Governor Kathy Hochul to proclaim November 17-23, 2025, as Hunger and Homelessness Awareness Week in the State of New York

Senate Resolution J 90 requests Governor Kathy Hochul to proclaim November 17-23, 2025, as Hunger and Homelessness Awareness Week in New York State. The resolution cites statistics showing over 2.6 million New Yorkers experience food insecurity (one in eight people) and approximately 91,000 face homelessness on any given day, aiming to raise public awareness about these issues. This symbolic resolution does not create new laws but encourages community action and resource coordination through a designated awareness week preceding Thanksgiving. It directly addresses statewide concerns about hunger and homelessness without implementing policy changes.
