House Concurrent Resolution No. recognizes June 4, 2025, as Opportunity Youth Day at the Louisiana state capitol. This resolution highlights the efforts of the Louisiana Opportunity Youth Alliance (LOYAL), which aims to support disconnected youth—defined as individuals aged 16 to 24 who are neither enrolled in school nor employed. With Louisiana facing the second-highest youth disconnection rate in the nation, the resolution emphasizes the importance of prioritizing opportunity youth to enhance educational and workforce opportunities, ultimately benefiting both the youth and the state's economy.

The designated Opportunity Youth Day will serve as a platform for youth and organizations dedicated to their welfare to gather in Baton Rouge. Participants will have the chance to learn about the legislative process, engage with elected officials, and celebrate their commitment to improving the lives of opportunity youth in Louisiana. The resolution encourages all Louisianians to support youth-serving organizations, reinforcing the collective responsibility to address the challenges faced by disconnected youth in the state.
