HRES 924 United States House · 117th Congress

Expressing support for designation of the month of February 2022 as "National Teen Dating Violence Awareness and Prevention Month".

HRES 924 is a symbolic resolution designating February 2022 as "National Teen Dating Violence Awareness and Prevention Month." It does not create new laws or allocate funding but expresses congressional support for raising awareness about teen dating violence, which the resolution cites as affecting teens through physical, sexual, psychological, and stalking behaviors. The resolution references CDC data showing high rates of teen dating violence (e.g., 44.3% of teens experienced violence, 15.6% experienced two types) and calls on schools, communities, and families to observe the month with awareness activities. It focuses on promoting existing prevention efforts like education and healthy relationship programs without proposing new policy changes.
