Bill > HRes1052

This resolution expresses support for designating February 2026 as "National Teen Dating Violence Awareness and Prevention Month" to highlight the serious issue of dating violence among teenagers. The resolution acknowledges that teen dating violence encompasses physical violence, sexual violence, psychological aggression, and stalking, and notes the growing problem of technology-facilitated abuse, such as cyberstalking and doxing, which contributes to increased psychological aggression. It points out that teens are particularly vulnerable to dating violence, with significant percentages experiencing various forms of abuse, and that this violence can have severe consequences, including increased risk of suicide and a higher likelihood of experiencing sexual violence later in life. The resolution emphasizes the importance of education, community outreach, and programs that teach healthy relationship skills to prevent abuse before it starts and to support victims. It also calls for the people of the United States, including youth, parents, schools, and various organizations, to observe this month with activities that promote awareness and prevention of teen dating violence.
