HRES 1481 United States House · 118th Congress

Expressing support for the recognition of September 2024 as "National Children's Emotional Wellness Month" and for increased public awareness regarding children's emotional health and wellness.

HRES 1481 is a symbolic resolution (not a law) expressing the House's support for recognizing September 2024 as "National Children's Emotional Wellness Month." It aims to raise public awareness about children's emotional health, highlighting statistics on rising mental health challenges like depression, anxiety, and suicide risk among youth. The resolution specifically encourages broader public attention to these issues, thanks mental health professionals and nonprofits supporting children, and emphasizes the connection between parental mental health and children's well-being. It does not create new programs, allocate funding, or change existing policies - its effect is limited to raising awareness through official recognition.
