Memorializing Governor Kathy Hochul to proclaim March 2025, as Alport Syndrome Awareness Month in the State of New York

This resolution asks Governor Hochul to designate March 2025 as Alport Syndrome Awareness Month in New York, aiming to increase public awareness of this rare genetic kidney disease. It does not create new laws or funding but serves as a symbolic gesture to highlight Alport Syndrome, which causes progressive kidney damage, hearing loss, and eye issues, affecting fewer than 200,000 people in the U.S. The resolution provides background on the disease and urges New Yorkers to learn about its symptoms and diagnosis.
