Expressing support for the designation of May 2026 as "Mental Health Awareness Month".
This resolution expresses support for designating May 2026 as Mental Health Awareness Month to highlight the importance of mental well-being and reduce stigma. It does not create new laws or allocate funding but serves as a formal statement acknowledging the rising rates of mental illness, suicide, and disparities in care across the United States. The text cites various statistics regarding anxiety, depression, and access to treatment to underscore the need for public awareness and continued efforts by medical and community organizations. Ultimately, the bill encourages citizens and institutions to use this month to promote mental health resources and support for individuals and families affected by mental illness.
