A special committee of Brazil’s Chamber of Deputies will meet on Tuesday, November 10, at 2 p.m. to vote on a report on the creation of a national policy for people with autism.
The bill, authored by former congressman Alexandre Frota, provides for measures in health, education, social assistance and inclusion, including rights such as early diagnosis and multidisciplinary care. More than 100 proposals are being considered alongside it.
The rapporteur, Congressman Marangoni, recommends approving the bill, the attached proposals and the amendments submitted to the committee, with a substitute text.
