This resolution (HRES 128) formally designates February 2025 as "National Teen Dating Violence Awareness and Prevention Month" in the U.S. House of Representatives.

It directly affects public awareness efforts nationwide, emphasizing the disproportionate impact of dating violence on teens, especially young women, based on CDC and other data cited in the resolution.
