Quote the text, not the summary. A Georgia Senate resolution congratulates the Junior League of DeKalb County for its decades of volunteer work and community service, including health equity and leadership training programs. ### Plain-language summary This is a commemorative resolution from the Georgia Senate rather than a change to state law. It recognizes the Junior League of DeKalb County, a women's volunteer organization founded in 1934, for its community work in DeKalb County. The resolution describes the group's recent activities, including distributing free menstrual care products (called Period Packs) to local high schools and hosting workshops to train women in leadership and community involvement. The Senate formally congratulates and commends the organization and directs the Secretary of the Senate to prepare a copy of the resolution for the group.
