Recognizing May 2025 as Mental Health Awareness Month.
This is a symbolic Senate resolution (SR 468), not a bill with policy changes. It recognizes May 2025 as Mental Health Awareness Month in Texas and encourages all Texans to support mental health services, education, and community outreach. The resolution cites statistics about mental health challenges in Texas (e.g., 4.7 million adults living with mental illness, school psychologist shortages) but does not create new programs, funding, or legal requirements. It serves only as a formal acknowledgment of the issue, with no direct impact on individuals or existing services.
