SR 251 Georgia Senate · 2025-2026 Regular Session

Osteoporosis Awareness and Prevention Month; recognize May 2025

SR 251 is a ceremonial resolution recognizing May 2025 as Osteoporosis Awareness and Prevention Month in Georgia. It does not create new laws or alter funding but aims to raise public and professional awareness about osteoporosis prevention, leveraging statistics on its prevalence (e.g., 54 million U.S. cases, 48,000 Georgia Medicare fractures in 2016) and emphasizing prevention through diet, exercise, and screening. The resolution has no binding requirements but directs the Senate Secretary to distribute copies for public awareness.
