Whereas studies show toxic stress relating to exposure to vio-

Whereas violence against children can lead to negative health

and can further limit access to the physical, mental

educational settings provide; 
Whereas decades of behavioral and social science research

known as resilience, through stable and committed rela-

lessen the harmful developmental effects of violence in
