Soleno conducted its fourth successful DC Hill Day of 2025 in September! Jill Yersak and Kara Hinkley are always grateful for the support provided by KPM Group DC's Paula Gutierrez! Our trio met with a dozen congressional offices while advocating for policies that support the PWS community and for the re-establishment of critical incentives for R&D in rare disease drug discovery. Did you know that Soleno's government affairs team also advocates for patient access and affordability policies across all 50 states? Stay tuned for exciting updates! #PWSAwareness #RareDisease #PWSCommunity

Here are some ways to foster an inclusive and supportive environment for those with PWS and their caregivers: ✅ Ask thoughtful and respectful questions instead of making broad assumptions ✅ See the person instead of the diagnosis and lead with empathy rather than judgement ✅ Be patient, cultivate a supportive environment, and educate yourself on PWS Don’t know how to support individuals with PWS? Check out our “Understanding PWS: Showing Up with Care,” guide, created in partnership with the PWS community, for helpful tips, information and resources: https://bit.ly/4l4HKSs #PWSAwareness #RareDisease #Support4PWS #Inclusivity
