A Resolution designating the month of May 2024 as "Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome Awareness Month" in Pennsylvania.

This resolution designates May 2024 as Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome Awareness Month in Pennsylvania to highlight the condition, which affects connective tissue and causes issues like joint instability and fragile skin. The bill aims to increase public understanding of the disorder, which often goes undiagnosed due to its varied symptoms and lack of routine screening. By drawing attention to the disease, the measure seeks to support affected individuals and encourage further research and multidisciplinary care without mandating any specific government actions or funding.
