A resolution expressing support for the goals and ideals of National Child Abuse Prevention Month.
SRES 679 is a symbolic Senate resolution expressing support for National Child Abuse Prevention Month (observed in March).

It directly affects no individuals or entities but serves as a public statement of legislative support for existing child protection initiatives.
