The resolution designates April 2nd as "Light It Up Blue Day" in New Jersey to promote awareness, acceptance, and appreciation of autism spectrum disorder. This initiative aligns with World Autism Awareness Month, which aims to increase understanding and support for individuals with autism. The resolution highlights the significance of raising awareness for early diagnosis and access to resources, especially given that New Jersey has a higher rate of autism diagnoses compared to the national average.

To commemorate this day, state agencies are encouraged to illuminate buildings with blue lights, a color associated with autism awareness. The Governor is also empowered to issue an annual proclamation to encourage public participation in activities that promote autism awareness. The resolution will take effect immediately and will be communicated to relevant state officials and agencies to ensure widespread recognition and observance of Light It Up Blue Day each year.
