 Supporting the goals and ideas of National Community Residential Care 
                                 Month.

Whereas the need for quality and dependable health care for the elderly, 
        disabled, and mentally ill increases every year;
Whereas community residential care provides medical, social, and nutritional 
        assistance to those in need who cannot provide for themselves;
Whereas both the national and international community residential care industry 
        is deserving of recognition and appreciation;
Whereas the community residential care industry is staffed by committed, 
        hardworking professionals who dedicate their working lives to the care 
        of the elderly, disabled, and mentally ill;
Whereas those providing community residential care must meet stringent licensing 
        requirements;
Whereas the community residential care industry provides a workable and homelike 
        environment for those unable to care for themselves at home, in a manner 
        which promotes confidence, support, and self-esteem; and
Whereas the Community Residential Care Association of California recognizes the 
        month of May as ``National Community Residential Care Month'': Now, 
        therefore, be it
    Resolved by the House of Representatives (the Senate concurring), 
That the Congress supports the goals and ideas of National Community 
Residential Care Month and requests that the President issue a 
proclamation calling on the people of the United States to observe such 
a month with appropriate programs and activities.
