## Summary

**Recognition of Intersex Awareness Day and protection of bodily autonomy for intersex people.** This resolution would endorse October 26, 2026 as Intersex Awareness Day, spotlight harms from nonconsensual infant surgeries, and urge consent-centered care and public education. - Families and children: It would encourage care that respects bodily autonomy and supports delaying nonurgent, irreversible interventions until informed consent is possible. - Health-care providers: It would urge culturally and clinically competent care that honors self-determination and aligns with medical groups opposing medically unnecessary infant genital surgery. - Schools and young people: It would encourage schools to teach about the intersex community and connect intersex youth and families to resources. - Governments and aid organizations: It would encourage federal, state, local, and international funding bodies to prioritize the health and human rights of intersex people.
