Autism Awareness Month
HR 8067 designates April 2026 as "Autism Awareness Month" in Florida through a ceremonial resolution. This bill does not create new programs, funding, or policy changes; it is a symbolic designation to highlight autism awareness. The resolution references Florida's high autism prevalence (329,131 residents with ASD) and the importance of early intervention, but the bill itself only formally names the month. As a procedural resolution, it has no direct impact on services or legislation.
