## Summary

**Hidradenitis Suppurativa Awareness Week (June 1–7, 2026)** would be designated to raise public and clinical awareness of this chronic skin disease. The resolution says HS affects about 3.3 million Americans, causes painful nodules, abscesses, tunnels under the skin, scarring, and severe psychological distress with one of the highest suicide rates among dermatologic diseases, notes about 75 percent are misdiagnosed or not diagnosed until after age 25 which worsens outcomes and increases health care costs, and urges more research, better screening and culturally competent care, and policies to improve access to therapies and wound care.
