A resolution to declare February 2026 as National Teen Dating Violence Awareness and Prevention Month and February 10, 2026, as National Teen Dating Violence and Prevention Day in the state of Michigan.
This resolution (HR 245) symbolically declares February 2026 as National Teen Dating Violence Awareness and Prevention Month and February 10, 2026, as National Teen Dating Violence and Prevention Day in Michigan. It does not create new laws or allocate funding but aims to raise public awareness about teen dating violence. The resolution cites CDC data showing high rates of physical, sexual, and psychological violence among teens, including 44.3% experiencing at least one form of violence. It directs Michigan residents and communities to recognize these dates to support prevention efforts, though it has no binding policy requirements.
