This resolution expresses support for designating February 2025 as "National Teen Dating Violence Awareness and Prevention Month." It seeks to raise national awareness about the significant public health issue of teen dating violence, which encompasses physical violence , sexual violence , psychological aggression , and stalking . The resolution highlights the particular vulnerability of teens and the disproportionate impact on young women. The resolution cites alarming statistics, noting that over a quarter of teens in romantic relationships have experienced digital dating abuse, and nearly half have encountered some form of violence. It emphasizes that early education on healthy relationships and prevention programs are crucial for deterring abuse before it begins and reducing future generations' exposure to intimate partner violence. The resolution also calls upon various stakeholders, including youth, parents, schools, and law enforcement, to observe the month with appropriate awareness and prevention activities.
