Expressing support for the designation of September 2024 as "National Polycystic Kidney Disease Awareness Month", and raising awareness and understanding of polycystic kidney disease.
This resolution designates September 2024 as "National Polycystic Kidney Disease Awareness Month" to raise public awareness and understanding of polycystic kidney disease (PKD), a genetic condition affecting approximately 500,000 people in the U.S. It encourages the public, healthcare providers, and organizations to support the month through activities like events and education to highlight PKD's impact on individuals and families. The resolution does not create new laws or funding but serves as a symbolic gesture to promote research, care, and support for those living with PKD, which is a leading cause of kidney failure.
