The House concurrent resolution No. R-75 recognizes April 2025 as the Month of the Military Child in Vermont. It highlights the challenges faced by the over 1.6 million children of U.S. military personnel, particularly those whose parents are deployed. The resolution notes the specific impact on approximately 1,000 Vermont National Guard families, emphasizing the emotional and social disruptions these children experience due to frequent relocations and parental absences.

The resolution also acknowledges the historical significance of April as the Month of the Military Child, a designation made by the U.S. Department of Defense in 1986. It outlines various supportive programs aimed at improving the lives of military children, including partnerships with organizations like the Boys & Girls Clubs and Sesame Street for Military Families. Additionally, April 15, 2025, is designated as Purple Up! For Military Kids Day, encouraging Americans to wear purple in solidarity with military families. The resolution concludes by directing the Secretary of State to send a copy to the Vermont National Guard Office of Child & Youth Services.
