Proclamation for CRPS/RSD Awareness Day
Last week, Putnam County Executive Kevin Byrne signed a proclamation recognizing CRPS/RSD Awareness Day, demonstrating the county’s commitment to raising awareness for Complex Regional Pain Syndrome (CRPS), also known as Reflex Sympathetic Dystrophy (RSD). In support of this cause, Byrne directed the Department of Public Works to illuminate the County Historic Courthouse in orange, the color symbolizing CRPS/RSD awareness.
“CRPS/RSD is a challenging medical condition that impacts many lives, including some of our own residents here in Putnam County,” said Byrne. “I’m grateful for the advocacy and efforts of Mahopac’s Marianne Chaluisan, who has been a strong voice in raising awareness for this cause. By shining a light—literally and figuratively—we aim to educate and bring hope to those affected by this condition.”
