  • Family Day, 2009
    Proclamations Proc. 8424 the laws of the United States, do hereby proclaim September 26, 2009, as National Public Lands Day. I invite all my fellow citizens to join me in a day of service for our public lands. IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand this twenty-fifth day of September, in the year of our Lord two thousand nine, and of the Inde- pendence of the United States of America the two hundred and thirty- fourth. BARACK OBAMA Proclamation 8424 of September 28, 2009 Family Day, 2009 By the President of the United States of America A Proclamation Our family provides one of the strongest influences on our lives. American families from every walk of life have taught us time and again that children raised in loving, caring homes have the ability to reject negative behaviors and reach their highest potential. Whether children are raised by two par- ents, a single parent, grandparents, a same-sex couple, or a guardian, fami- lies encourage us to do our best and enable us to accomplish great things. Today, our children are confronting issues of drug and alcohol use with as- tonishing regularity. On Family Day, we honor the dedication of parents, commend the achievements of their children, and celebrate the contribu- tions our Nation’s families have made to combat substance abuse among young people. The 21st century presents families with unprecedented challenges. Millions of women and men are struggling to balance the demands of their jobs with the needs of their families. At the same time, our youngest generation faces countless distractions in their social environment.

The remaining five counties, Broward, Hillsborough, Palm Beach, Pinellas and Sarasota, have elected to designate a local licensing agency, per provisions in 402.306, F.S., to regulate child care licensing programs in their area.
