Developmental Disabilities Awareness Month

This resolution designates March 2026 as "Developmental Disabilities Awareness Month" in Florida. It symbolically recognizes individuals with developmental disabilities (such as autism, cerebral palsy, or learning disabilities) and aims to promote community awareness and inclusion. The resolution does not create new laws, funding, or services - it serves as a ceremonial observance to highlight existing efforts supporting these individuals. It aligns with a national tradition established in 1987, emphasizing year-round accessibility and opportunities rather than changing policy.
