Memorializing Governor Kathy Hochul to proclaim June 2026, as Post-Traumatic Stress Injury Awareness Month, and June 27, 2026, as Post-Traumatic Stress Injury Awareness Day in the State of New York
This bill directs the Governor of New York to officially designate June 2026 as Post-Traumatic Stress Injury Awareness Month and June 27, 2026, as Post-Traumatic Stress Injury Awareness Day. The legislation uses the term "injury" rather than "disorder" to highlight the physical impact of trauma on the brain and to reduce the stigma associated with seeking help. By adopting this resolution, the state aims to raise awareness about mental health challenges faced by citizens, including veterans and survivors of other traumatic events, without imposing new laws or funding requirements.
