ENROLLED JOINT RESOLUTION
Relating to: proclaiming April 26, 2025, as Shared Parenting Day in Wisconsin.
Whereas, the State of Wisconsin recognizes that our children are our greatest resource; and
Whereas, our children need emotional and parental support from both parents to be as successful as possible; and
Whereas, separated parents who choose to share parenting duties significantly decrease the chances of undesirable youth troubles and struggles; and
Whereas, shared parenting is shown to have a significantly positive effect on children’s well-being; and
Whereas, Wisconsin is currently one of the leading states in shared parenting outcomes for children with separated parents; and
Whereas, increasing public awareness of the importance of providing children with the parental support they need from both parents benefits Wisconsin’s children, their parents, and all of Wisconsin’s citizens; now, therefore, be it
Resolved by the senate, the assembly concurring, That the members of the Wisconsin Legislature hereby proclaim April 26, 2025, as Shared Parenting Day in Wisconsin.
