Legislative activity taking place in state capitols can have a significant impact on the quality of life of people with profound autism and those who care for them.
June 3, 2025 - Huge congratulations to our advocates in Connecticut, where House Bill 7108 has now passed the Senate and House unanimously. Our PAA steering committee in CT has committed to positive, credible advocacy. We are so grateful! Stay tuned for more details in the coming weeks!
People with profound autism should be included in research, services, and supports. Unfortunately, their inclusion has diminished over the years, resulting in fewer and fewer resources for this struggling population.
A simple and effective first step in recognizing them and their unique needs is to familiarize state officials with the new term, profound autism.
One way to accomplish this is through a profound autism day proclamation. We've made it very simple for you to ask your state legislator to issue a profound autism day proclamation at the link below.
