【单选题】October isDomestic ViolenceAwareness Month in the United States. The observance seeks to educate the public about this issue which affects millions of people each year.

That is why the UNChildren’s Fund calls domestic violence "one of the most important human rights challenges of our times."
The congressional hearing was held last week to educateAmerican policy makers about the problem.
