Welcome to the inaugural Walk, Run, & Rest for Hidradenitis Suppurativa Awareness, hosted by Hope for HS!
Every year, in the first full week of June, the Hidradenitis Suppurativa (HS) world comes together to raise awareness. This year, for the first time ever, we can celebrate global HS Awareness Week with the time-honored tradition of an awareness run! But HS is a painful, progressive, debilitating disease that - in severe cases - takes the ability to walk and run away from the person living with it. So we also Rest for HS - to highlight what this disease can take away and to allow those of us most dedicated to this cause (the people actually living with HS) to participate in a classic way to raise awareness.
If you're not familiar with Hidradenitis Suppurativa, please take a moment to learn about this disease. HS is a common affliction that is not commonly spoken about. You may recognize symptoms of HS in yourself or loved ones, but have never gotten the proper diagnosis.
