FSGS Awareness Day; recognize June 9, 2026
This Georgia Senate resolution (SR 844) designates June 9, 2026, as FSGS Awareness Day to recognize focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS), a rare kidney disease causing scarring that often leads to kidney failure. It aims to raise public awareness about FSGS, support affected patients and families, and highlight the disease's disproportionate impact on minority communities. The resolution does not create new laws or allocate funding - it serves as a symbolic recognition of the condition's health burden.
