The bill introduced by Senator Blackshear, along with several cosponsors, aims to designate the month of April as "Counseling Awareness Month" in the state of Ohio. This initiative seeks to raise awareness about the importance of counseling and mental health services within the community.

To implement this designation, the bill proposes the enactment of a new section, 5.2322, in the Revised Code, which explicitly states that April will be recognized as "Counseling Awareness Month." This addition to the law highlights the significance of counseling in promoting mental well-being and encourages public recognition of the profession.
