Raising awareness and encouraging the prevention of stalking by designating January 2025 as "National Stalking Awareness Month".
HRES 99 designates January 2025 as "National Stalking Awareness Month" to raise public awareness about stalking and encourage prevention efforts. The resolution directly affects victims of stalking, service providers, law enforcement, schools, and community organizations by urging them to increase education and support services. It does not create new laws or funding but calls on policymakers, criminal justice systems, and institutions to promote awareness and improve responses to stalking. The resolution acknowledges stalking's widespread impact, including high rates of victimization among young adults and technology-facilitated stalking, while emphasizing collaboration to support victims.
