CHILD ABUSE PREVENTION MONTH

This bill is a House resolution that formally recognizes April 2026 as National Child Abuse Prevention Month in Illinois. It does not create new laws, change funding, or alter existing programs; instead, it serves as an official acknowledgment to raise awareness about preventing child abuse and neglect. The resolution highlights the ongoing efforts of communities, families, and organizations to protect children and strengthen family units. By designating this month, the Illinois House of Representatives aims to encourage continued public attention and support for child safety initiatives already in place.
