H.R. No. 33 is a resolution recognizing April 2, 2025, as World Autism Awareness Day in Texas. The resolution highlights the importance of raising awareness about autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and the challenges faced by individuals living with the condition. Established by the United Nations in 2007, World Autism Awareness Day aims to improve public understanding of autism and promote the quality of life for those affected. The resolution notes that ASD encompasses a range of health conditions that can lead to social, communication, and behavioral challenges, with symptoms varying widely among individuals.

Furthermore, the resolution emphasizes a shift in perspective among medical professionals and researchers towards embracing the neurodiversity paradigm, which focuses on supporting individuals with autism rather than seeking to "cure" the disorder. This approach aims to restore dignity and self-esteem for those affected and helps families access necessary services. The resolution encourages all Texans to commit to fostering an environment of compassion and acceptance for individuals impacted by autism, thereby promoting a more inclusive society.
