Chihuahua neurodivergence and disability awareness

Overview

In Chihuahua City, local officials have initiated programs to increase visibility for neurological and physical conditions. In October 2026, Mayor René Chavira and municipal council members illuminated the Plaza de Armas in green to mark World Cerebral Palsy Day, an effort intended to promote social inclusion and recognize the work of the Kopac Chihuahua association.

Following this, the Municipal DIF launched the “Reconociendo la Neurodivergencia” (Recognizing Neurodivergence) campaign. This initiative focuses on fostering respect and understanding regarding different learning, communication, and developmental styles. The campaign utilizes informative talks and media outreach to reduce social prejudices and support families, building upon a neurodevelopment framework established in 2022 and reinforced by inter-institutional agreements signed in April 2025.
