Creates a national center to help communities prevent domestic violence deaths.
This bill would create a national center to help communities across the country set up programs that identify and protect people at high risk of domestic violence-related deaths. It would set aside $5 million each year to fund this center, aiming to connect victims with help faster and train first responders.
Today, there is no specific federal authorization for the Attorney General to make grants to establish a national center dedicated to promoting lethality assessment programs to reduce domestic violence-related homicides. If this bill becomes law, the Attorney General would be authorized to award grants to nonprofit or tribal organizations to establish such a national center, with $5,000,000 set aside each year starting in the government's budget year 2026.
