SPECIAL DAY/WEEK/MONTH: Designates June 2, 2025, as The Arc Appreciation Day in Louisiana
This is a symbolic resolution (HR 246), not a substantive bill. It designates Monday, June 2, 2025, as "The Arc Appreciation Day" in Louisiana to honor The Arc of Louisiana, a 70-year-old advocacy organization supporting people with intellectual and developmental disabilities. The resolution recognizes the organization's work through its 22 local chapters, advocacy efforts in state legislature, and services like early intervention and supported employment. It has no policy impact or direct effect on individuals or services; it is purely a ceremonial recognition.
