Designates March 17 of each year as "Profound Autism Day."

AJR 220 designates March 17 of each year as "Profound Autism Day" in New Jersey. The resolution recognizes people with profound autism - those requiring 24/7 care due to severe intellectual disabilities or minimal communication - and their caregivers. It requests the Governor issue an annual proclamation to raise awareness about their unique challenges and needs, as highlighted by CDC research showing profound autism affects 26.7% of autistic children in the U.S. This is a commemorative resolution with no new funding or policy changes.
