Bill > J01627

This resolution, a formal request from the New York State Legislative Body, urges Governor Kathy Hochul to officially designate May 2026 as Speech-Language-Hearing Month across the state. The purpose of this designation is to raise public awareness about the critical importance of communication skills and the health of speech, language, and hearing for all New Yorkers. It also aims to highlight the vital work of speech-language pathologists and audiologists, professionals who help individuals overcome communication challenges through therapies and interventions, thereby improving their quality of life. The resolution emphasizes the need for greater public understanding and support for effective communication as a fundamental right.
