The resolution introduced in the Wisconsin State Legislature recognizes February as Teen Dating Violence Awareness and Prevention Month. It highlights the prevalence of dating violence among teens, noting that one in five teens experiences some form of abuse from a dating partner, and emphasizes that many victims do not disclose their experiences. The resolution underscores the importance of educating young people about healthy relationships and the early warning signs of abuse, as well as the need for community cooperation to eliminate dating violence.

By designating February as a month for awareness and prevention, the resolution aims to encourage public engagement in learning about dating violence and supporting organizations that advocate for victims. It calls for increased awareness and education to empower young individuals to foster respectful relationships and to seek help when needed. The resolution was introduced by a group of representatives and senators and has been referred to the Committee on Rules for further consideration.
