The resolution permanently designates the first Friday in February as "Give Kids A Smile Day" in New Jersey. This initiative aims to raise awareness about the critical issue of tooth decay, which is the most prevalent chronic infectious disease among children in the U.S. The resolution highlights the negative impact of untreated dental issues on children's health, education, and overall well-being. It also acknowledges the national "Give Kids A Smile" program, which began in 2002 and has since provided dental care to millions of underserved children through the efforts of numerous volunteers and dental professionals.

The resolution calls for the Governor to issue an annual proclamation recognizing this day and encourages public officials and citizens to participate in related activities and programs. By designating this day, New Jersey seeks to educate families about the importance of oral health, improve access to dental care for underserved communities, and foster a greater understanding of the challenges faced by children lacking adequate dental services.
