Memorializing Governor Kathy Hochul to proclaim February 2025, as Turner Syndrome Awareness Month in the State of New York

This resolution asks Governor Hochul to officially recognize February 2025 as Turner Syndrome Awareness Month in New York State. It aims to increase public and medical awareness of Turner Syndrome, a genetic condition affecting approximately 5,000 women in New York (1 in 2,000 females) that often goes undiagnosed until adolescence. The resolution highlights that early detection can improve health outcomes, as many affected individuals face complications like heart issues, diabetes, and learning disabilities without proper care. This is a ceremonial request, not a law with new requirements.
