Expressing support for the designation of October 2024 as "National Learning Disabilities Awareness Month".

HRES 1548 is a non-binding resolution supporting the designation of October 2024 as "National Learning Disabilities Awareness Month." It highlights that specific learning disabilities affect 34% of students receiving special education services and notes significant academic challenges, with over 95% of affected 4th and 8th graders not proficient in reading or math in 2022. The resolution calls on schools to continue providing appropriate support for students with learning disabilities but does not create new laws or funding. It aims to raise public awareness about learning disabilities, not to change educational policies.
