24:16>> Thank you. Item 50.

24:19Any discussion?

24:21Any

24:23objections? Please call the role. All

24:26>> in favor? Oppos? Unanimous.

24:29>> Councelor Nav.

24:32>> Madame President, I have an a resolution

24:36to recognize September 2026

24:39as suicide prevention awareness month in

24:42the city of Syracuse. And may I just

24:44speak a moment about this

24:48about suicide?

24:51I want to just go over briefly the

24:53suicide rate among people with Tourett

24:56syndrome and who are gay and I am both.

25:00It says research on each condition

25:02individually shows that both groups face

25:05significantly elevated risk for suicide

25:08ideiation attempts due to overlapping

25:11factors like minority stress, social

25:13stigma and discrimination. People with

25:15Tourette's syndrome or chronic tick

25:17disorders are roughly four times more

25:20likely to die by suicide and nearly four

25:23times more likely to attempt suicide

25:26compared to general population.

25:28For the gay, lesbian, and bisexual

25:30adults, they fa they face a suicide risk

25:33that is three to six times greater than

25:36that of the heterosexual [snorts]

25:38adults. And according to the Trevor

25:40Project, roughly 37%

25:43of gay or lesbian youth seriously

25:46consider suicide. About 19%

25:50make that attempt. And with minority

25:52stress, this increased vulnerability is

25:55directly linked by researchers to

25:57external factors such as family rejected

26:00rejection, anti-LGBTQ

26:02discrimination, and hostile social

26:05environments. And now Before

26:09we ask for its adoption, may I please

26:12read this recognition

26:16and I will then present it to Isabelle

26:19Patito has spearheaded this drive and

26:22she's going to speak for a moment for

26:25that. May I please read this this

26:28resolution? September is nationally

26:31recognized as suicide prevention

26:33awareness month which s serves as an

26:35opportunity to raise awareness about

26:37suicide prevention, promote hope, reduce

26:40stigma surrounding mental health and

26:43encourage community support individuals

26:45and families affected by suicide.

26:48Where is suicide is preventable and

26:50increasing awareness, recognizing

26:52warning signs, encouraging open and

26:54honest conversation about mental health

26:56and connecting individuals with

26:58appropriate resources and professional

27:00support can save lives. And whereas

27:02suicide prevention awareness month

27:04provides an opportunity for the city of

27:06Syracuse. challenge the stigma

27:09surrounding mental health, promote open

27:11conversations about emotional

27:13well-being, and remember those lost to

27:15suicide, support survivors of suicide

27:17loss, and promote hope and healing

27:20process through our community. And

27:22whereas every member of our community

27:24can play a critical role in suicide

27:26prevention by listening without

27:28judgment, being compassionate,

27:30recognizing when someone might be

27:32struggling, and helping those

27:34individuals connect with support and

27:36resources. And where is the city of

27:38Syracuse encourages its residents,

27:41family, community organizations,

27:42schools, healthc care providers, and

27:44other community partners to participate

27:46in efforts to raise awareness, promote

27:48mental health, reduce stigma, and streng

27:51suicide prevention resource throughout

27:53the community. And be it resolved that

27:55the Syracuse Common Council is duly

27:58elected representatives of the proud

28:00citizens of the city of Syracuse who

28:02hereby recognize September 2026 is is

28:06suicide prevention awareness month. And

28:08we urge everyone to promote hope,

28:12healing, and mental health awareness to

28:14encourage suicide prevention throughout

28:16the month of September and beyond.

28:18adopted by unanimous vote of Syracuse

28:20Common Council signed by the honorable

28:22Brianna Pantiaga, president of Syracuse

28:25Common Council. And Isabelle, if you

28:27please come up, offer a few words. I'm

28:29going to present this to you.

28:34>> Um, good afternoon, council. I'm Isa

28:37Patito and I'm a volunteer for the

28:39American Foundation for Suicide

28:40Prevention. Thank you. Um, and I'm also

28:43a member of the planning committee for

28:45our local out of the darkness community

28:47walk. Um, I'd like to sincerely thank

28:50the common council for passing this

28:52resolution recognizing September as

28:53suicide prevention awareness month. And

28:56by formally acknowledging this, you are

28:58helping break stigma around mental

28:59health, opening up life-saving

29:01conversations, and showing our entire

29:04community that no one has to fight these

29:06battles alone. Suicide affects so many

29:08families right here in Syracuse. and but

29:11through education, advocacy, and

29:13accessible support systems, we know that

29:16prevention is possible and hope is

29:17within reach. Um, I'd also like to

29:20invite everyone to our annual At the

29:22Darkness Walk on October 10th at Long

29:28affected, and raise critical funds for

29:30life-saving research and support

29:32programs. And there are flyers on the

29:34back of the table for anyone interested.

31:57uh, Mark Cass. But first, I'd like to

31:59ask a question. How many of you either

32:01knew well or worked with Mark Cass over

32:03the last many decades? Anybody many

32:07people knew brother

32:09>> Mark counselor? Yep, I did.

32:13>> Thank you.

32:15>> Um, so I'm I'm I'm preaching to the

32:16choir as it were uh when I say that uh

32:20Mark was was present. Uh he was there

32:24and I mean that physically and

32:26spiritually and when anyone talked to

32:29him whether it was a prek kid in our

32:31little pales program at the north side

32:33or an elder struggling with everything

32:35uh brother Mark was there as you all are

33:01in our community and his vision and his

33:03work continues to empower the people in

33:06our community uh who need it the most.

33:08especially at this time. Um, as you

33:12going to be a tsunami of cuts coming up

33:15with, uh, whether it be SNAP or

33:18Medicaid, as many of you know much

33:20better than I. And that work needs to

33:22continue and it will continue, God

33:24willing, um, with with volunteers and

33:27hopefully paid staff if we can if we can

33:29figure that part out. Um, this week is
