So tonight we do have four proclamations on

which is the Ovarian Cancer Awareness Month proclamation.
1:53
S… Speaker 1 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
I'm not going to read through the entire proclamation,
1:56
S… Speaker 1 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
and then I just have some remarks.
2:01
S… Speaker 1 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
Ovarian Cancer Awareness Month proclamation.
2:03
S… Speaker 1 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)

approximately 21 ,010 women will

supporting those currently fighting the disease,
2:51
S… Speaker 1 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
and fostering hope for a future with better treatments and
2:55
S… Speaker 1 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
ultimately a cure.

S… Speaker 1 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)

Ovarian cancer called the silent killer is one of the most important health

S… Speaker 1 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
issues that affects many women and families right here in our own

community.
3:43
S… Speaker 1 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
We continue to help raise awareness,
3:45
S… Speaker 1 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
educate ourselves,
3:46
S… Speaker 1 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
and support those who are affected.
3:48
S… Speaker 1 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
Our colleague,
3:50
S… Speaker 1 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
Roxbury Councilman Jonathan Sackett,
3:52
S… Speaker 1 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
could not be here tonight to receive our proclamation,
3:55
S… Speaker 1 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
whose sister Rachel is a survivor,
3:58
S… Speaker 1 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
and she has been on Zoom with us to tell her story in the past.
4:02
S… Speaker 1 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
We stand in solidarity with those like Rachel,
4:06
S… Speaker 1 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
supporting continued research in the fight against ovarian cancer.
4:10
S… Speaker 1 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
The next proclamation is Prostate
4:14
S… Speaker 1 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
Cancer Awareness Month,
4:16
S… Speaker 1 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
and Deputy Mayor Janata will address that proclamation.
4:19
S… Speaker 2 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
Thank you,
4:20
S… Speaker 2 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
Mayor. Whereas prostate cancer is among the most
4:24
S… Speaker 2 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
commonly diagnosed cancer among men in the United States,
4:27
S… Speaker 2 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
with approximately 333 ,830 new
4:32
S… Speaker 2 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
cases,
4:33
S… Speaker 2 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
being diagnosed in the United States in 2026.
4:36
S… Speaker 2 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
And approximately 36 ,320 men
4:40
S… Speaker 2 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
will die of the disease in 2026.
4:43
S… Speaker 2 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
And whereas the risk of developing prostate cancer
4:47
S… Speaker 2 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
varies based on age,
4:49
S… Speaker 2 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
race, and family history,
4:50
S… Speaker 2 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
the disease occurring more frequently in older men and
4:54
S… Speaker 2 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
at higher rates among African -American men in the United States and the Caribbean.
5:00
S… Speaker 2 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
And whereas the prostate cancer death rate declined by about half from 1993
5:04
S… Speaker 2 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
to 2022,
5:06
S… Speaker 2 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
likely reflecting earlier detection and advances in treatment.
5:10
S… Speaker 2 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
and whereas continued education awareness research and access to
5:14
S… Speaker 2 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
quality health care are essential to improving prevention,
5:17
S… Speaker 2 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
early detection,
5:18
S… Speaker 2 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
treatment, and survivorship for those affected by prostate cancer.
5:22
S… Speaker 2 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
Now,
5:23
S… Speaker 2 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
therefore, be it proclaimed that the Township Committee of the Township of Morris hereby
5:27
S… Speaker 2 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
recognizes September 2026 as Prostate Cancer Awareness
5:32
S… Speaker 2 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
Month and encourages all residents to learn the facts about prostate
5:36
S… Speaker 2 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
cancer, discuss screening,
5:38
S… Speaker 2 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
and risk factors with their health care providers,
5:40
S… Speaker 2 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
support research and patient care efforts,
5:42
S… Speaker 2 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
and recognize the men and families affected by this disease.
5:46
S… Speaker 2 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
And on a personal note,
5:48
S… Speaker 2 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
I have an uncle who passed away about 15 years ago
5:52
S… Speaker 2 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
from this disease,
5:53
S… Speaker 2 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
and so it has affected many
5:58
S… Speaker 2 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
of us.
5:58
S… Speaker 2 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
Thank you.
5:59
S… Speaker 1 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
Thank you.
6:02
S… Speaker 1 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
The next proclamation is the Suicide Prevention Awareness Month
6:06
S… Speaker 1 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
Proclamation,
6:06
S… Speaker 1 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
and that will be read by Committeeman Grazel,
6:09
S… Speaker 1 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
and he is also going to present that to Donna Pichuto,
6:13
S… Speaker 1 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
who's been an active member with the American Foundation for
6:17
S… Speaker 1 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
Suicide Prevention New Jersey chapter for many years.
6:20
S… Speaker 1 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
Do you want to do it from here,
6:22
S… Speaker 1 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
Jeff, or go up to the...
6:23
S… Speaker 2 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
I'm going to actually do it there so Donna can join me.
6:24
S… Speaker 1 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
Great.
6:25
S… Speaker 1 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
Thank you.
6:26
S… Speaker 3 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
So
6:47
S… Speaker 2 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
before I get started on this,
6:49
S… Speaker 2 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
you might think,
6:50
S… Speaker 2 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
why do we...
6:51
S… Speaker 2 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
make these proclamations every month.
6:53
S… Speaker 2 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
We try to raise awareness within the community of certain issues that are important to
6:57
S… Speaker 2 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
us.
6:58
S… Speaker 2 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
And by raising that awareness,
7:00
S… Speaker 2 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
perhaps you'll come along,
7:02
S… Speaker 2 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
have a situation in your life where you say,
7:04
S… Speaker 2 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
oh, I heard about that,
7:05
S… Speaker 2 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
you know, at the Morse Township Committee meeting,
7:07
S… Speaker 2 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
and you'll be able to act on it.
7:09
S… Speaker 2 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
And just last year,
7:10
S… Speaker 2 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
I was sitting next to Mr.
7:12
S… Speaker 2 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
Rav, Committee Man Ravitz,
7:13
S… Speaker 2 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
and he read the Prostate Cancer Awareness Proclamation,
7:17
S… Speaker 2 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
and I'm sitting there going,
7:18
S… Speaker 2 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
oh.
7:19
S… Speaker 2 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
man, I have a couple of those symptoms.
7:21
S… Speaker 2 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
I better get checked out.
7:22
S… Speaker 2 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
And literally,
7:23
S… Speaker 2 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
it was in that moment where I said,
7:24
S… Speaker 2 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
well, if we hadn't raised awareness here,
7:26
S… Speaker 2 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
I literally wouldn't have gotten screened for it.
7:29
S… Speaker 2 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
And thankfully,
7:30
S… Speaker 2 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
everything is great,
7:31
S… Speaker 2 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
but I'm very happy that I got myself screened.
7:33
S… Speaker 2 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
So that's the reason why we do these kinds of things.
7:36
S… Speaker 2 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
And same goes for this next one about for suicide awareness.
7:40
S… Speaker 2 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
Personally,
7:42
S… Speaker 2 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
I've been affected by suicide three times in my life.
7:45
S… Speaker 2 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
I have a cousin who committed suicide.
7:48
S… Speaker 2 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
I have a good friend in Morris Township who committed suicide right here in our community.
7:52
S… Speaker 2 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
And my high school girlfriend,
7:54
S… Speaker 2 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
who I took to the prom,
7:55
S… Speaker 2 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
committed suicide by a gun when she was in her late 20s.
7:58
S… Speaker 2 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
And I can tell you that it leaves a hole in yourself for
8:02
S… Speaker 2 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
the rest of your life.
8:03
S… Speaker 2 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
It's something that you can't let go.
8:04
S… Speaker 2 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
I can't let go of any of those three people and can't get over the fact.
8:08
S… Speaker 2 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
that they decided to do this.
8:10
S… Speaker 2 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
So we try to raise awareness.
8:11
S… Speaker 2 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
So if you happen to come across somebody in your life that has a mental
8:15
S… Speaker 2 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
health issue,
8:16
S… Speaker 2 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
might be contemplating doing something,
8:19
S… Speaker 2 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
doing harm to them,
8:20
S… Speaker 2 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
that you'll be able to have the strength to step up and try to make
8:24
S… Speaker 2 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
a difference for our community.
8:26
S… Speaker 2 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
So I would like to read into the record the Suicide Prevention Awareness
8:30
S… Speaker 2 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
Month Proclamation.
8:32
S… Speaker 2 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
Whereas September is observed as National Suicide Prevention Awareness Month,
8:35
S… Speaker 2 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
providing opportunity to raise awareness,
8:38
S… Speaker 2 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
remember those lost to suicide,
8:40
S… Speaker 2 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
support individuals who have struggled with suicidal thoughts,
8:43
S… Speaker 2 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
and recognize the families or friends and communities affected by suicide.
8:47
S… Speaker 2 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
And whereas suicide remains a significant public health concern in
8:51
S… Speaker 2 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
the United States.
8:52
S… Speaker 2 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention,
8:56
S… Speaker 2 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
the CDC, suicide is among the leading causes of death in
9:00
S… Speaker 2 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
the United States,
9:01
S… Speaker 2 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
underscoring the importance of awareness,
9:04
S… Speaker 2 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
prevention and access to mental health resources.
9:07
S… Speaker 2 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
And whereas suicidal thoughts can affect anyone,
9:11
S… Speaker 2 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
regardless of age,
9:12
S… Speaker 2 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
race, gender,
9:13
S… Speaker 2 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
religion, sexual orientation or background.
9:16
S… Speaker 2 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
making awareness,
9:17
S… Speaker 2 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
education,
9:18
S… Speaker 2 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
and access to mental health resources essential to
9:22
S… Speaker 2 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
prevention.
9:23
S… Speaker 2 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
And whereas the nationwide 988 Suicide and Crisis Lifeline
9:27
S… Speaker 2 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
provides free confidential 24 -hour support for individuals experiencing
9:31
S… Speaker 2 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
mental health,
9:32
S… Speaker 2 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
substance use,
9:33
S… Speaker 2 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
suicidal crises,
9:34
S… Speaker 2 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
and for those concerned about a loved one,
9:37
S… Speaker 2 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
And whereas as a stigma -free community,
9:40
S… Speaker 2 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
the Township of Morris supports efforts to promote mental health awareness,
9:44
S… Speaker 2 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
reduce stigma,
9:46
S… Speaker 2 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
encourage open conversation,
9:48
S… Speaker 2 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
and remind all individuals they are not alone
9:52
S… Speaker 2 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
and help is available.
9:54
S… Speaker 2 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
And now,
9:55
S… Speaker 2 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
therefore, may it be proclaimed by the Township Committee of the Township of Morris that
9:59
S… Speaker 2 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
September...
10:00
S… Speaker 2 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
is hereby proclaimed National Suicide Awareness Month in the
10:04
S… Speaker 2 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
Township of Morris,
10:04
S… Speaker 2 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
and all residents are encouraged to promote awareness,
10:08
S… Speaker 2 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
offer support,
10:10
S… Speaker 2 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
and help foster hope throughout our community.
10:14
S… Speaker 2 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
And with that, I'm going to take a break.
10:15
S… Speaker 2 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
I have a couple other things to say,
10:16
S… Speaker 2 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
but I'm going to let Donna speak.
10:18
S… Speaker 3 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
Well,
10:18
S… Speaker 4 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
first of all, I'm sorry about how you've been affected.
10:21
S… Speaker 4 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
I have also been affected three times.
10:23
S… Speaker 4 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
My cousin when I was 19,
10:24
S… Speaker 4 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
my husband's brother in 2008,
10:27
S… Speaker 4 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
and my sister in 2017.
10:28
S… Speaker 4 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
So that we were like,
10:30
S… Speaker 4 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
it's kind of weird how we were together and we both were affected that way.
10:34
S… Speaker 4 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
So I got involved in American Foundation Suicide Prevention after my sister
10:38
S… Speaker 4 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
had taken her life and started doing the walks.
10:40
S… Speaker 4 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
And it was very healing.
10:42
S… Speaker 4 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
And especially for my parents,
10:44
S… Speaker 4 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
like to lose a child that way.
10:45
S… Speaker 4 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
My husband's parents were in different states,
10:48
S… Speaker 4 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
so they didn't join us.
10:49
S… Speaker 4 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
And then now I'm on the chair for the Morris County Walk,
10:52
S… Speaker 4 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
which is in Chatham on October 10th.
10:55
S… Speaker 4 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
So I'm hoping that we raise money for prevention,
10:59
S… Speaker 4 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
for awareness.
11:01
S… Speaker 4 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
It goes to so many different things.
11:03
S… Speaker 4 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
And I think it's good as a community to just come together and be
11:07
S… Speaker 4 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
there.
11:08
S… Speaker 4 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
Like I said, it was very healing for me.
11:09
S… Speaker 4 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
I did it like my sister died in July 2017 and in September I did it.
11:12
S… Speaker 4 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
And it's really helped me.
11:14
S… Speaker 4 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
So I volunteer there.
11:15
S… Speaker 4 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
I'm a healing conversationist.
11:16
S… Speaker 4 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
If you know someone who's lost somebody by suicide,
11:18
S… Speaker 4 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
they can reach out and they can,
11:20
S… Speaker 4 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
we'll get.
11:22
S… Speaker 4 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
like you put together who works and that I can speak to them.
11:25
S… Speaker 4 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
And just like,
11:26
S… Speaker 6 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
not as therapy,
11:27
S… Speaker 1 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
just like, hey,
11:27
S… Speaker 4 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
I've been through it.
11:28
S… Speaker 4 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
There's a light at the other tunnel,
11:29
S… Speaker 4 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
some ideas that helped me when I was going through the process.
11:32
S… Speaker 4 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
So again,
11:33
S… Speaker 4 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
it's in Chatham at Cougarfield,
11:35
S… Speaker 4 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
October 10th.
11:36
S… Speaker 4 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
It starts checking,
11:37
S… Speaker 4 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
sign is at three.
11:38
S… Speaker 4 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
It starts at four o 'clock.
11:39
S… Speaker 4 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
It's just a nice,
11:40
S… Speaker 7 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
feel good kind of day.
11:41
S… Speaker 4 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
I mean, it could be emotional,
11:42
S… Speaker 4 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
but I feel like I felt more like everyone that we do,
11:45
S… Speaker 4 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
my whole family does it together.
11:46
S… Speaker 4 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
It's very healing,
11:47
S… Speaker 4 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
so.
11:48
S… Speaker 4 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
i think this is wonderful and i'm a school counselor on top of it so we do a lot through the schools to
11:52
S… Speaker 4 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
do it i just felt like like you say it leaves a hole that you you just wish you knew so
11:56
S… Speaker 4 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
there are signs and on another note one of my best friends is at morristown hospital
12:01
S… Speaker 4 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
right now she checked her last self last night for a suicidal ideation so
12:05
S… Speaker 4 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)

Donna. Thanks for coming out to represent the organization.
12:14
S… Speaker 2 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)

and crisis hotline.
12:29

Nice to see you all again.
18:43
S… Speaker 4 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
I am Gabrielle Wells.
18:45
S… Speaker 4 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
I am a member,
18:46
S… Speaker 4 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
well,
18:46
S… Speaker 4 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
a community member of Morris Township.
18:49
S… Speaker 4 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
First and foremost,
18:49
S… Speaker 4 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
before you leave,
18:50
S… Speaker 4 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)

member Grazel.
18:55
S… Speaker 4 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
I do want to give my sincerest condolences
19:00
S… Speaker 4 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
for the people in your lives that you lost.
19:03
S… Speaker 4 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
I thought that was very brave of you to share today.
19:05
S… Speaker 4 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
And so I do think that that should be acknowledged.
19:07
S… Speaker 8 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
Thank you.
19:08
S… Speaker 4 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
absolutely um my other thing is about the
19:12
S… Speaker 4 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
park because every time i come here i speak about collinsville playground
19:16
S… Speaker 4 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
um so initially my issue was
19:20
S… Speaker 4 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
the finishing of the park you all did open the park it was finished it was
19:24
S… Speaker 4 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
done beautifully you had a wonderful opening event with
19:28
S… Speaker 4 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
that being said um there have been some very
19:34
S… Speaker 4 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
Strange characters that have now found a new home
19:38
S… Speaker 4 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
in our park,
19:39
S… Speaker 4 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
such as people who are under the influence.
19:42
S… Speaker 4 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
A gentleman was sleeping in the actual park playground and
19:46
S… Speaker 4 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
had to be removed.
19:47
S… Speaker 4 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
There have been multiple police phone calls that
19:51
S… Speaker 4 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
have been in police reports that have been reported to him.
19:54
S… Speaker 4 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
Sorry,
19:55
S… Speaker 4 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
he's now three,
19:56
S… Speaker 4 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
so he's more vocal.
20:00
S… Speaker 4 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
Due to that,
20:00
S… Speaker 4 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
we ask that not only that there be more patrol,
20:04
S… Speaker 4 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
we ask
20:09
S… Speaker 4 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
that there be more police patrol,
20:11
S… Speaker 4 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
but then also that there be a heavier presence.
20:14
S… Speaker 4 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
The other request is I know that there have been employees that have been
20:18
S… Speaker 4 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
employed at the park to overlook the splash pad
20:22
S… Speaker 4 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
as well as the actual park itself.
20:26
S… Speaker 4 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
Unfortunately, and I know the individuals may be doing their very best,
20:30
S… Speaker 4 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
but it seems as if we may need more active employees,
20:33
S… Speaker 4 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
not only on the splash pads because the parents are not necessarily monitoring
20:38
S… Speaker 4 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
their children.
20:38
S… Speaker 4 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
Some of them who are not from Morris Township because they don't
20:42
S… Speaker 4 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
live in the neighborhood at all or in the vicinity are literally declothing
20:47
S… Speaker 4 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
their children and they're just running around just in their bare body that
20:51
S… Speaker 4 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
God gave them,
20:52
S… Speaker 4 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
which is kind of off -putting to watch.
20:55
S… Speaker 4 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
But the other thing,
20:56
S… Speaker 4 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
too, is after sunset,
20:57
S… Speaker 4 (Unofficial Video of the Sept. 16, 2026 Morris Township Committee meeting.)
there are groups of individuals who drink,
