This section expresses support for the designation of Black Autism Acceptance and Awareness Day and encourages Americans to celebrate the day by raising awareness about inequalities facing Black autistic individuals, promoting understanding, acceptance, and inclusion, amplifying their voices, and advocating for justice and equity. The section also recognizes that acceptance requires culturally competent care and equitable access to resources, that acceptance and resources must extend into adulthood, and that autism and other neurological differences represent natural variations in the human experience to be celebrated.
