The House Resolution recognizes October 2025 as "Domestic Violence Awareness Month" in Pennsylvania, aligning with the national observance established in 1989. It highlights the significant impact of domestic violence, which affects over 10 million individuals annually in the U.S., with alarming statistics indicating that one in three women and one in four men experience domestic violence in their lifetimes. The resolution cites data from the Pennsylvania Coalition Against Domestic Violence (PCADV), noting that more than 1,400 individuals have been killed in the state due to domestic violence over the past decade, and emphasizes the psychological and social ramifications of such violence on victims and families.

The resolution aims to raise public awareness about domestic violence, its prevalence, and the resources available for victims. It underscores the importance of empowering victims to report incidents of domestic violence and encourages the House of Representatives to commit to educating the public about the issue. By designating October 2025 as "Domestic Violence Awareness Month," the resolution seeks to foster a supportive environment for victims and promote initiatives that address and combat domestic violence in Pennsylvania.
