HR 37 California Assembly · 2025-2026 Regular Session

Relative to childhood apraxia of speech.

This is a symbolic House Resolution (not a legislative bill), recognizing May 14, 2025, as "Apraxia Awareness Day" in California. It aims to increase public understanding of childhood apraxia of speech (CAS), a neurological disorder affecting a child's ability to produce speech sounds consistently. The resolution encourages insurance providers and schools to support early speech therapy for affected children but does not create new legal requirements or funding. As a procedural resolution, it has no binding effect on policy or services.
