Memorializing Governor Kathy Hochul to proclaim September 2026, as Recovery Month in the State of New York

This bill asks the Governor of New York to officially declare September 2026 as Recovery Month in the state. The resolution aligns with the national observance of the same name, which focuses on raising awareness about substance use treatment and mental health services. By adopting this measure, the legislature intends to honor individuals in recovery and the service providers who support them. The bill is a ceremonial action that does not create new laws or allocate funding but rather serves to recognize the importance of behavioral health support.
