This Senate resolution formally supports designating May 4-10, 2025, as "Children's Mental Health Awareness Week" to raise public awareness about youth mental health challenges. The resolution acknowledges that millions of American children struggle with undiagnosed and untreated mental health conditions, and that stigma often prevents young people from seeking help. It calls for treating youth mental health as a national priority and encourages continued promotion of mental health support in schools and communities. The resolution also recognizes the importance of lifestyle factors like outdoor recreation, healthy diet, peer socialization, and adequate sleep for children's mental well-being, while urging individuals, families, and communities to participate in awareness activities during the designated week.
