This resolution expresses support for designating October 2026 as "National Learning Disabilities Awareness Month" to highlight the needs of students with learning disabilities. The resolution emphasizes that learning disabilities are the most common disability among special education students, affecting about 32 percent of those receiving services, and notes concerning data showing that over 96 percent of fourth and eighth grade students with learning disabilities are not proficient in reading. The resolution calls attention to racial disparities, as Black and Hispanic students with learning disabilities face even larger achievement gaps than their white and Asian peers. It encourages state and local education agencies to continue providing appropriate educational support to students with learning disabilities, while highlighting that research shows these students can succeed with proper instruction and early screening. This is a symbolic resolution with no direct funding or implementation requirements.
