Bill > K00364

This resolution memorializes Governor Kathy Hochul to officially proclaim April 24, 2025, as Take Our Daughters and Sons To Work Day in New York State, recognizing a national program designed to provide children with insight into workplace environments and professional opportunities. The resolution highlights the Take Our Daughters And Sons To Work Foundation, a non-profit organization that aims to build workplace diversity, raise awareness about children's issues, and help youth develop resilience. Since 1993, the program has involved over 40 million youth and adults in more than four million workplaces worldwide, offering more than just a career shadowing experience by encouraging children to explore educational and professional possibilities, share their future visions, and engage in interactive learning about work and family life. The legislative body views this educational initiative as a valuable opportunity to support youth development, promote understanding of professional environments, and contribute to creating a more equitable society by bringing children and adults together in a meaningful, educational context.
