MEMORIALIZING Governor Kathy Hochul to proclaim
February 6-10, 2023, as Pride in Foodservice Week in
the State of New York

WHEREAS, It is the custom of this Legislative Body to recognize
official weeks that are set aside to inform key audiences about the role
and value of those workers who are helping to make a difference in food
service delivery; and

WHEREAS, Attendant to such concern, and in full accord with its
long-standing traditions, this Legislative Body is justly proud to
memorialize Governor Kathy Hochul to proclaim February 6-10, 2023, as
Pride in Foodservice Week in the State of New York, in conjunction with
the observance of National Foodservice Week; and

WHEREAS, Observed annually from the first Monday in February, Pride
in Foodservice Week recognizes food and nutrition professionals and
other members of nutrition services teams for their hard work and
dedication to their job; and

WHEREAS, Pride in Foodservice Week was initiated by the Association
of Nutrition & Foodservice Professionals (ANFP), a nationwide body of
over 30 years that started first as Hospital, Institution, and
Educational Food Service Society in 1960, then Dietary Managers
Association in the 1980s, and finally its current name in 2012; and

WHEREAS, Today, the ANFP includes more than 14,000 professionals
dedicated to the practice of providing optimum nutritional care through
foodservice management; and

WHEREAS, ANFP members work in hospitals, long-term care, schools,
correctional facilities, and other non-commercial foodservice settings;
and

WHEREAS, The association provides foodservice reference,
publications and resources, employment services for members, continuing
education and professional development, and certification programs; it
also monitors industry trends and legislative issues, and publishes one
of the industry's most respected magazines; and

WHEREAS, It is the sense of this Legislative Body to take note of
and publicly acknowledge individuals such as foodservice workers who
distinguish themselves through their exemplary careers, accomplishments,
and purposeful lives of service to their community and their profession;
now, therefore, be it

RESOLVED, That this Legislative Body pause in its deliberations to
memorialize Governor Kathy Hochul to proclaim February 6-10, 2023, as
Pride in Foodservice Week in the State of New York; and be it further

RESOLVED, That a copy of this Resolution, suitably engrossed, be
transmitted to The Honorable Kathy Hochul, Governor of the State of New
York.
