A Resolution recognizing the week of April 20 through 26, 2025, as "National Infertility Awareness Week" in Pennsylvania.
This resolution recognizes April 20-26, 2025, as "National Infertility Awareness Week" in Pennsylvania. It cites statistics showing infertility affects 1 in 8 couples in the U.S., with 9% of men and 11% of women experiencing fertility issues, and notes Pennsylvania lacks state laws requiring fertility treatment insurance coverage (unlike 21 other states). The resolution aims to reduce stigma and increase public understanding of infertility challenges, including emotional and financial burdens. As a symbolic recognition, it does not create new laws or funding but aligns Pennsylvania with national awareness efforts led by groups like RESOLVE.
