Bill > AJR117

This joint resolution designates September as "Neighborhood Month" and September 28th as "Neighborhood Day" in New Jersey, with the goal of promoting and strengthening community relationships. The resolution highlights the benefits of neighborly connections, including improved student performance, decreased crime rates, enhanced community safety, and overall community well-being. It emphasizes that these designated times will encourage residents to come together through gatherings that share food, fellowship, and fun, while rekindling friendships, welcoming new neighbors, and building personal connections. The resolution respectfully requests that the Governor issue an annual proclamation encouraging public officials and citizens to observe the month and day with appropriate activities and programs, ultimately aiming to inspire, build, and sustain neighborhood relationships that provide a foundation for civic action and create stronger, more caring communities.
