A Resolution recognizing the month of June 2025 as "Lipedema Awareness Month" in Pennsylvania.
This resolution designates June 2025 as "Lipedema Awareness Month" in Pennsylvania. It symbolically recognizes lipedema - a chronic condition causing abnormal fat buildup in limbs, primarily affecting women - and highlights challenges like misdiagnosis and limited treatment options. The resolution encourages public awareness and continued research but does not create new laws, funding, or direct services. It is a non-binding symbolic gesture to support those living with lipedema.
