Designates a National Specialized Instructional Support Personnel Appreciation Week and formally praises the work of specialized instructional support personnel in U.S. schools. The resolution recognizes their roles in preventing and reducing learning barriers, supporting student mental health and behavior, collaborating with teachers and families, and contributing to safer, more supportive school environments.
It encourages policymakers, education leaders, and experts to raise awareness of these staff, to share evidence-based practices, and to promote the contributions of school-based specialists who serve students facing academic, social, or emotional challenges. The resolution is a nonbinding, symbolic recognition and does not authorize spending or change program rules.
