Bill > HRes752

This resolution expresses support for designating September 19, 2025, as "Black Autism Acceptance and Awareness Day" while highlighting significant disparities faced by Black autistic individuals. The resolution acknowledges that autism is a form of neurodivergence characterized by unique social communication skills and focused behaviors, and it emphasizes the racial inequities in diagnosis, treatment, and support for Black autistic people. Specifically, the resolution calls for raising awareness about these challenges, promoting understanding and inclusion, amplifying Black autistic voices, and advocating for justice and equity. It recognizes that true acceptance requires culturally competent care, challenging existing biases, building community, and providing equitable access to resources. The resolution also emphasizes that autism is a lifelong condition requiring support beyond childhood and that neurological differences should be celebrated as natural variations in human experience. By encouraging Americans to recognize and address these issues, the resolution seeks to promote greater understanding, acceptance, and support for Black autistic individuals across various aspects of their lives.
