A resolution recognizing and supporting the goals and ideals of National Sexual Assault Awareness and Prevention Month.

Sponsored By: Senator Grassley, Chuck [R-IA]

Passed Senate

Summary

National Sexual Assault Awareness and Prevention Month focuses attention on preventing sexual violence, supporting survivors, and holding perpetrators accountable. It cites CDC figures that 2 in 5 women and 1 in 4 men face intimate partner sexual or physical violence or stalking, 546,159 children were victims of sexual abuse or neglect in 2023, and about 29,061 service members experienced sexual assault. The text notes disproportionate harm to American Indian and Alaska Native communities, a $3.1 trillion national economic burden from rape, gaps in crisis services, and resources like RAINN's 800-656-HOPE hotline and the Department of Defense Safe Helpline.
