Summary
The Teen Dating Violence Education Act of 2005 (H.R. 2947) sought to expand domestic violence education within the public school system. The bill proposed amending the Elementary and Secondary Education Act of 1965 to require that these educational programs include specific information regarding the legal rights of teenage victims under their respective state laws. For students and parents, this would have ensured that school-based resources provided practical guidance on how young people can access legal protections and support services if they experience dating violence.
