Bill > H8063

This resolution designates October 15, 2026, as "National Pregnancy and Infant Loss Remembrance Day" in Florida, aiming to break the silence and overcome social taboos surrounding the grief and trauma of miscarriage, stillbirth, and infant death. The resolution acknowledges the devastating impact of such losses, notes that October is recognized nationally as Pregnancy and Infant Loss Awareness Month, and references a U.S. Congressional resolution supporting National Pregnancy and Infant Loss Remembrance Day. It also highlights global statistics on newborn deaths and stillbirths, the commonality of miscarriage, and Florida's Healthy Start program, which provides services to reduce risks associated with infant mortality and poor developmental outcomes, all in an effort to encourage open remembrance and support for affected families.
